Love

The Poetry of Shelley

by George Meredith 1828–1909

From Poems — Volume 1

Love

SEE’ST thou a Skylark whose glistening winglets ascending
Quiver like pulses beneath the melodious dawn?
Deep in the heart-yearning distance of heaven it flutters—
Wisdom and beauty and love are the treasures it brings down at eve.
