Love

‘What Look hath She?’

by Mary Colborne-Veel 1863–1923

From The Fairest of the Angels, and other Verse

Love

What look hath she,
What majestie,
That must so high approve her?
What graces move
That I so love,
That I so greatly love her?

No majestie
But Truth hath She;
Thoughts sweet and gracious move her;
That straight approve
My heart to love,
And all my life to love her!
