Envoi
Beloved, till the day break,
Leave wide the
little door;
And bless, to lack and longing,
Our brimming
more-and-more.
Is love a scanted portion,
That we should hoard thereof? --
Oh,
call unto the deserts,
Beloved and my Love!
From: Rittenhouse, Jessie B.
The Second Book of Modern Verse (1919).
