"TIME STANDS STILL, WITH GAZING ON HER FACE" by ANONYMOUS

Last Line: "AND FORTUNE CAPTIVE AT HER FEET, CONTEMNED AND CONQUERED LIES!"
Subject(s): LOVE;

Time stands still, with gazing on her face!
Stand still, and gaze! for minutes, hours and years, to her give place.
All other things shall change, but She remains the same,
Till heavens changed have their course, and Time hath lost his name.
Cupid doth hover up and down, blinded with her fair eyes!
And Fortune captive at her feet, contemned and conquered lies!
