With Love beside him. He unlocked the door
And bade Love enter with him there and stay.
And so the twain abide for evermore.
LOVE'S CHASTENING
Once Love grew bold and arrogant of air,
Proud of the youth that made him fresh and fair;
So unto Grief he spake, "What right hast thou
To part or parcel of this heart?" Grief's brow
Was darkened with the storm of inward strife;
Thrice smote he Love as only he might dare,
