 Lovingly, Silently, Night after night I steal through the gates to the House of Delight, To the palace of bliss, And your hair and your eyes and your lips, dear, I kiss; I kiss them, and know that my life's not in vain, And I love you, and love you, again and again.

Empire, Dominion, Ambition, and all That men in their folly life's prizes would call, I would throw them away, If but for to-day, Close, close to my heart, my arms could enfold The form that I love in love's passionate hold.

Faith, Hope And love I have given to you; Heart, Mind And soul, I have given them, too; And I give,— I have given you all that a dreamer could give. —33—
