Maxioms by Lord Alfred Tennyson
One of Satan's shepherdesses caught
And meant to stamp him with her master's mark.

And meant to stamp him with her master's mark.
Look you! I myself am nearest to myself.
Look you! I myself am nearest to myself.
And oft I heard the tender dove
In firry woodlands making moan.
And oft I heard the tender dove
In firry woodlands making moan.
While I plan, and plan, my hair
Is gray before I know it.
While I plan, and plan, my hair
Is gray before I know it.
But over all things brooding slept
The quiet sense of something lost.
But over all things brooding slept
The quiet sense of something lost.
