Love poems
William Cowper
To a Young Lady
Sweet stream that winds through yonder glade,
Apt emblem of a virtuous
maid-
Silent and chaste she steals along,
Far from the world's gay busy
throng:
With gentle yet prevailing force,
Intent upon her destined
course;
Graceful and useful all she does,
Blessing and blest where'er
she goes;
Pure-bosom'd as that watery glass,
And Heaven reflected in her
face.

- 'Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.'
~ Carl Jung - 'Let those love now who never loved before; Let those who always loved, now love the more.'
~ Thomas Parnell - 'To live is like to love -
all reason is against it,
and all healthy instinct for it.'
~ Samuel Butler, Life and love
