Robert Louis Stevenson - Youth And LoveRobert Louis Stevenson - Youth And Love
Work rating: Low


  To the heart of youth the world is a highwayside.   Passing for ever, he fares; and on either hand,   Deep in the gardens golden pavilions hide,   Nestle in orchard bloom, and far on the level land   Call him with lighted lamp in the eventide.   Thick as the stars at night when the moon is down,   Pleasures assail him.  He to his nobler fate   Fares; and but waves a hand as he passes on,   Cries but a wayside word to her at the garden gate,   Sings but a boyish stave and his face is gone.
