Gareth And Lynette

...
And seen thy way.' 'Heaven help thee,' sighed Lynette. 

Then for a space, and under cloud that grew 
To thunder-gloom palling all stars, they rode 
In converse till she made her palfrey halt, 
Lifted an arm, and softly whispered, 'There.' 
And all the three were silent seeing, pitched 
Beside the Castle Perilous on flat field, 
A huge pavilion like a mountain peak 
Sunder the glooming crimson on the marge, 
Black, with black banner, and a long black horn

Loves Supremacy

...in a forest when dead leaves are falling, 
From all save some perennial green tree, 
So one by one I find all pleasures palling

To A Lady

...mory yield their aid,
But Pride may teach me to forget thee.

Yet all this giddy waste of years,
This tiresome round of palling pleasures;
These varied loves, these matrons' fears,
These thoughtless strains to Passion's measures---

If thou wert mine, had all been hush'd:---
This cheek, now pale from early riot,
With Passion's hectic ne'er had flush'd,
But bloom'd in calm domestic quiet.

Yes, once the rural Scene was sweet,
For Nature seem'd to smile before thee;
And once my...Read more of this...
