Excerpt from A Book of Epigrams

She comes like the hushed beauty of the night, But sees too deep for laughter; Her touch is a vibration and a light.

Excerpt from A Book of Epigrams

The Year's Minstrelsy

Spring, the low prelude of a lordlier song;
Summer, a music without hint of death:
Autumn, a cadence lingeringly long:
Winter, a pause; - the Minstrel-Year takes breath.

[William Watson

The Sun

All the World's bravery that delights our eyes,
Is but thy several liveries;
Thou the rich dye on them bestows't,
Thy nimble Pencil paints this landscape as thou go'st.

[Abraham Cowley
