George Meredith - Unknown Fair Faces
Work rating: Low

Though I am faithful to my loves lived through, 
And place them among Memory`s great stars, 
Where burns a face like Hesper: one like Mars: 
Of visages I get a moment`s view, 
Sweet eyes that in the heaven of me, too, 
Ascend, tho` virgin to my life they passed. 
Lo, these within my destiny seem glassed 
At times so bright, I wish that Hope were new. 
A gracious freckled lady, tall and grave, 
Went, in a shawl voluminous and white, 
Last sunset by; and going sow`d a glance. 
Earth is too poor to hold a second chance; 
I will not ask for more than Fortune gave: 
My heart she goes from—never from my sight!
