Love

Argument

by William Morris 1834–1896

From Poems By The Way & Love Is Enough

Love

This story, which is told by way of a morality set before an Emperor
and Empress newly wedded, showeth of a King whom nothing but Love
might satisfy, who left all to seek Love, and, having found it, found
this also, that he had enough, though he lacked all else.

_In the streets of a great town where the people are gathered
together thronging to see the Emperor and Empress pass_.
