- The ladies of St. James’s!
They’re painted to the eyes;
Their white it stays forever
Their red it never dies:
But Phillida, my Phillida!

It trembles to a lily,—
It wavers to a rose.- At the Sign of the Lyre (1885).
- Time goes, you say? Ah, no!
Alas, Time stays, we go.- The Paradox of Time (1886).
