APART.

How far apart are you and /,
Who sit beside one Winter hearth,
Or walk our quiet Autumn path;
Our hands entwined, our hearts so FAR
From each, that not yOn distant star,
That shineth in the crowded sky.
VIII some unknown Of newer birth,
Beyond the stars, e'er Tell us all?
That now like some empUrpleu pail,
Doth hide my soul from thy dear soul.
Shall We where countless planets roll,
Fer read the riddle? Is all dearth
Beyond your mortal eyes:
For perfect love forever tries
To feel itself at one with love;
Around, beneath, beside, above,
To center in the One--nO more,
And on this present rock-strtwn shore
We cannot win loves perfect prize
We are for aye alone.
