Age and Aging
Grow old with me the best is yet to come.
Ambition
What I aspired to be and was not, comforts me.
Desire
O lyric Love, half angel and half bird. And all a wonder and a wild desire.
Hope
Man partly is and wholly hopes to be.
Life and Living
I count life just a stuff to try the soul's strength on.
Optimism
My sun sets to rise again.
Sincerity
It is best to be yourself, imperial, plain and true.
Truth
Truth lies within ourselves: it takes no rise from outward things, whatever you may believe. There is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness and to Know rather consists in opening out a way whence the imprisoned splendor may escape than in effecting entry for light supposed to be without.
Youth
What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew.
