LARGESS, by                    
First Line: Life gave me once a little perfect hour
Last Line: Life gave me once a little perfect hour.
Subject(s): Wellesley College


LIFE gave me once a little perfect hour,
And then, repenting of the mood that spent
So much on one whilst others joyless went,
Withdrew her hand.

Since then in giftless silence life has past,
Beyond her bounty I have stood, outcast; --
I understand, --
Life gave me once a little perfect hour.
