Wilfrid Scawen Blunt - The Love Sonnets Of Proteus. Part IV: Vita Nova: CXIIIWilfrid Scawen Blunt - The Love Sonnets Of Proteus. Part IV: Vita Nova: CXIII
Work rating: Low


TO ONE WITH HIS SONNETS This is the book. For evil and for good, What my life was in it is written plain. These are no dreams, but things of flesh and blood, The past that lived and shall not live again. This is the book. I dare not bid you read. Too much of my poor soul you would unlock. Your own soul, if it tender were, might bleed. I could not bear that you should only mock. My life lies here. And yet in vain, dear heart, The tale is told. One page it yearns to see, One play where one best actor should find part. But that, alas for love! shall never be. Yet, if a sign you seek between these lines, One hidden lies for you, a sign of signs.
