THE THREE LAWS, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Love is the golden law
Last Line: Joining for aye!
Subject(s): Anger; Justice; Love


Love is the golden law,
Sunnily dear;
Justice, the silver law,
Cold, calm, and clear;
Anger, the iron law,
Harshly severe.

Anger's an iron lance,
Mighty to slay;
Justice, a silver scale,
Faultless alway;
Love is a golden ring,
Joining for aye!
