AD ASTRA: 52 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: NO OUTWARD SIGN I ASK OF LOVE'S AWAKING
Last Line: THE SWIFT RESPONSE THAT MAKETH ALL THINGS CLEAR.
Subject(s): HEARTS; LOVE; TOGETHERNESS;
'No outward sign I ask of Love's awaking,
Love needs no tongue to syllable his plea;
When once our eyes have met, all else forsaking,
Not death itself shall set our spirits free!
For each one hope, one language, there will be—
Our souls will meet in silence, and none hear
The swift response that maketh all things clear.
