LOVE
From out the wonder-country He rides, whose name is Love, And recks not whether sunlight glows, Or shy stars show above! From out the wonder-country He travels far and fast, And joy there is in hut, or hall, When Love comes home at last.
His reins are Pride and Prudence, His spur it is Desire; His horse’s hoofs are shod with Hope Well-wrought in Passion’s fire. No matter what the colour be, Or white, or black, or roan, There’s not a steed Love will not mount, For he is Lord alone!
