First Line: The roads are laid with cloth-of-gold
Last Line: Love cometh to his own.
Subject(s): Love; Poetry & Poets


THE roads are laid with cloth-of-gold;
And o'er the splendour, all alone,
Clad fair in scarlet, like a king,
Love cometh to his own.

A crown of thorns, a sceptral reed,
The beauty of a flaming throne!
From out the pleasant orchard-lands
Love cometh to his own.
