They Loved One Another
EY loved one another
young Edward and his wife,
And in their cottage-home they dwelt, apart from sin and strife
Each evening Edward weary came from a day of honest toil,
EY loved one another
young Edward and his wife,
And in their cottage-home they dwelt, apart from sin and strife
Each evening Edward weary came from a day of honest toil,
So,
Calchas, on the sacred Palatine,
You thought of Mopsus, and o'er wastes of sea A flower brought your message
I divine (Through my deep art) the kindly mockery That played about your lips and in your eyes,
Love one another, but make not a bond of love
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls
Fill each other's cup, but drink not from one cup
Give one another of your bread, but eat not from the same loaf
In my distress I sought the Lord When naught on earth could comfort give,
And when my soul these things abhorred,
Then,
Lord,
'Tis true, 'tis day; what though it be
O wilt thou therefore rise from me
Why should we rise, because 'tis light
Did we lie down, because 'twas night
The neighbors' dog will not stop barking
He is barking the same high, rhythmic barkthat he barks every time they leave the house
They must switch him on on their way out
The neighbors' dog will not stop barking
