Quotes
edit- Though fancy and the might of rhyme,
That turneth like the tide,
Have borne me many a musing time,
Beloved, from thy side
Ah yet, I pray thee, deem not Sweet,
Those hours were given in vain;
Within these covers to thy feet
I bring them back again- Dedication to His Wife, Among the Millet and Other Poems (J. Duire & Son Ottawa 1888).
