As the bud a leaf, so at last the thought becomes a word.
The three eldest children of Necessity: God, the World and love.
Passion is Love's blind guide, but the only one he hath.
If Pity come as Pity, bid her stay; But if in guise of Love, chase her away.
Wail not too wildly for expiring Love: The Love that dies was never quite alive.
Would the atheist continue such, let him beware how he admits Love into his breast: for God will surely come along with him.
