Drummond's `The Greatest Thing in the World'; William Morris's

O Art, my Art, thou'rt much, but Love is more!

Art symbolizes Heaven, but Love is God

And makes Heaven;"

"Love is leche of lyf and nexte oure Lorde selve,

And also the graith gate that goth into hevene."*

* The two lines may be translated: "Love is the physician of life

and next to our Lord himself; moreover, it is the way that goes

straight to Heaven."
