Homage
16 lines✦
lvira, by love's graceThere goeth before youA clear radianceWhich maketh all vain soulsCandles when noon is. The loud clangour of pretendersMelteth before youLike the roll of carts passing,But you come silentlyAnd homage is given. Now the little by-pathWhich leadeth to loveIs again joyful with its many;And the great highwayFrom loveIs without passers.
