EUCHARIS by HENRY PATMORE

First Line: THERE WITH DELIGHT LOVE LIVES
Last Line: OF BLIND LOVE WHERE HE LIES INSPHERED.

THERE with delight Love lives,
And to his secret wonders gives
Their nature and their own sweet way,
And lets them startle dreamy day.
There heaven on heaven is always free
To eyes that dare not look to see;
And worlds unknown lie not unguessed,
Concealed and sweetly manifest.
No word profane nor conscious thought
Can find the secret, felt unsought,
By men and innocent angels feared
Of blind Love where he lies insphered.
