Evolution (1895; 1909)
Context: Thus life by life and love by love
We passed through the cycles strange,
And breath by breath and death by death
We followed the chain of change.
Till there came a time in the law of life
When o’er the nursing sod,
The shadows broke and soul awoke
In a strange, dim dream of God.
“Doubt not a woman's hardihood; no danger is too great for wedded love to face.”
Crede vigori
femineo. Castum haud superat labor ullus amorem.
Book III, lines 112–113
