EYES by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: SWEET SPIRITS BORN TOGETHER
Last Line: EACH KNOWS A SISTER NEAR.
Sweet spirits born together
To dwell in orbs apart,
And feel the changeful weather
That clouds or clears the heart;
Ye see not one the other,
But in the smile or tear
That makes of both a mother
Each knows a sister near.
