Explore "Roses and Rue" by Leigh Gordon Giltner on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
To be his wife! Calm all my soul is filling, / A calm too deep for smiles--or even tears; / A perfect trust to slumber subtly stilling / My whilom doubts and fears.
Each little common thing to me seems rarer, / My life each day becomes more dear to me; / Love, am I fair? Ah, fain would I be fairer-- / And yet more fair for thee.
