Eleanor Farjeon (Элинор Фарджон)

Double Beauty

Love of the light compels the lark to sing
  And brims his tiny body with a spark;
The nightingale draws music from a spring
  Out of the bosom of the belovèd dark;
But on man's twofold nature God has breathed
  The double soul of beauty like a spell,
And dark in light or light in darkness sheathed
  His spirit still must sing the miracle.

1. Three Miles to Penn
2. Two Choruses from “Merlin in Broceliande”
3. Sonnets. 12. I hear love answer: Since within the mesh
4. Sonnets. 14. Now I have love again and life again
5. “Colin Clout, Come Home again!”
