Algernon Charles Swinburne - Cor CordiumAlgernon Charles Swinburne - Cor Cordium
Work rating: Low


    O heart of hearts, the chalice of love`s fire,         Hid round with flowers and all the bounty of bloom;         O wonderful and perfect heart, for whom     The lyrist liberty made life a lyre;     O heavenly heart, at whose most dear desire         Dead love, living and singing, cleft his tomb,         And with him risen and regent in death`s room     All day thy choral pulses rang full choir;     O heart whose beating blood was running song,       O sole thing sweeter than thine own songs were,           Help us for thy free love`s sake to be free,   True for thy truth`s sake, for thy strength`s sake strong,       Till very liberty make clean and fair           The nursing earth as the sepulchral sea.
