Yea, Love, we are thine, the liturgy of thee, Thy thought’s golden and glad name, The mortal conscience of immortal glee, Love’s zeal in Love’s own glory. the final verse is so telling about love. tony

A copy-cat writ of their forever Literary immortal William Shakespeare Are we embarrassed as 'Foreigners' to pretend to comprehend such gibberish, playful worded, rhetoric? This British Bard, would have discovered as many others in the world that ' GOD IS LOVE ' ------- * 'What would we call God, by what other name? Only Love would be the same' More; see; *'As A Rose' -louie levy listed here on PH

A hymn to the god of love which, if there were such a god, would have some meaning. Otherwise, however good the poetry, it is all false.
