How came pride in Man
From Mary it began
How Contempt & Scorn

Abstinence sows sand all over
The ruddy limbs & flaming hairt

Eternity
He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise

To See
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
