Dante Gabriel Rossetti - Sonnet VIII: Love`s LoversDante Gabriel Rossetti - Sonnet VIII: Love`s Lovers
Work rating: Low


Some ladies love the jewels in Love`s zone, And gold-tipped darts he hath for painless play In idle scornful hours he flings away; And some that listen to his lute`s soft tone Do love to vaunt the silver praise their own; Some prize his blindfold sight; and there be they Who kissed his wings which brought him yesterday And thank his wings to-day that he is flown. My lady only loves the heart of Love: Therefore Love`s heart, my lady, hath for thee His bower of unimagined flower and tree: There kneels he now, and all-anhungered of Thine eyes grey-lit in shadowing hair above, Seals with thy mouth his immortality.
