William Baylebridge Life Poems
- 1. Life And Death
This world is driven by two contending powers--
Love, that coerceth Heaven to dwell with dust,
And that dire pledge of Hell's self-perjured Lust--
And as we list must Heaven and Hell be ours.
... - 2. True Being
True Being
Rich hour! is not thy gift a radiant thing?
... - 3. Proverbs
One continent, one creed, one skin -
Our health and savour lie therein.
From wars and heavy things this grace is won -
They urge our pulse to unison.
