104. I LOVE ALL BEAUTEOUS THINGS

I love all beauteous things,

I seek and adore them;

God hath no better praise,

And man in his hasty days

Is honoured for them.

I too will something make

And joy in the making;

Altho' to-morrow it seem

Like the empty words of a dream

Remembered on waking.

_Robert Bridges._
