Christina Rossetti Quotes

O Cousin Kate, My Love Was True,
Your Love Was Writ In Sand:
If He Had Fooled Not Me But You,
If You Had Stood Where I Stand,
He'd Not Have Won Me With His Love,
Nor Bought Me With His Land;
I Would Have Spit Into His Face
And Not Have Taken His Hand.
Yet I Have A Gift You Have Not Got,
And Seem Not Like To Get:
For All Your Clothes And Wedding-ring
I've Little Doubt You Fret.
My Fair-haired Son, My Shame, My Pride,
Cling Closer, Closer Yet:
Your Father Would Give Lands For One
to Wear His Coronet
