" "
My Love stood by me at the dawn of day,
And said, 'To grief you make my heart a prey,
What I am casting looks of love at you,
Have you no shame to turn your eyes away?
All my life long I tread love's path of pain,
It peradventure 'union' I may gain
Better to catch one moment's glimpse of Thee
Than earthly beauties' love through lite retain.

Additional quotes by Jamie Oliver

Were Women all like those whom here I name,
Woman to man I surely would prefer;
The Sun is feminine, nor deems it shame;
The Moon, though masculine, depends on her.

I was trapped in love
And this trap is enough for me.

The pain night will be ended
And separation pain will be remedied
Unaware of this fact that this night is so long
And from that night to morning there are hundred years.
