He lived by writing things to quote.
He long ago put on his shroud;
Some of his works were rather loud.

Wisdom and wealth I both have got,
And fame and name and great men's praise;
But Love, ah! Love I have it not.

Love must kiss that mortal's eyes
Who hopes to see fair Arcady.
No gold can buy you entrance there;
But beggared Love may go all bare—
No wisdom won with weariness;
But Love goes in with Folly's dress—
No fame that wit could ever win;
But only Love may lead Love in.

Henry Cuyler Bunner

It was an old, old, old, old lady,
And a boy who was half-past three;
And the way they played together
Was beautiful to see.
