“Love is enough: through the trouble and tangle
From yesterday's dawning to yesterday's night”

— William Morris

Love is Enough (1872), Song V: Through the Trouble and Tangle
Context: Love is enough: through the trouble and tangle
From yesterday's dawning to yesterday's night
I sought through the vales where the prisoned winds wrangle,
Till, wearied and bleeding, at end of the light
I met him, and we wrestled, and great was my might.
