Envoi

By Josephine Preston Peabody

1874-1922

Beloved, till the day break,
         Leave wide the little door;
And bless, to lack and longing,
         Our brimming more-and-more.

Is love a scanted portion,
         That we should hoard thereof? --
Oh, call unto the deserts,
         Beloved and my Love!
