OH FAIR AND FLEET WITH EAGER FEET by FREDERICK WILLIAM HENRY MYERS

Last Line: No sweeter thing than love
Subject(s): COMING OF AGE; LOVE;

Oh fair and fleet with eager feet
The Greek his races ran,
Nor lost the boy his early joy
But triumphed into man:
Then tall and wise with graver eyes
He sought around, above.
Above, around, he sought and found
No sweeter thing than love.
