Holds like natures still at distance.
Mortal: love that Holy One,
Or dwell for aye alone.”
De Vere
To
HENRY WILLIAM WILBERFORCE.
To you alone, who have known me so long, and who love me so well, could I venture to offer a trifle like this. But you will recognise the author in his work, and take pleasure in the recognition.
