Inscription, In The Parsonage, Bemerton, To My Successor
by George Herbert
If thou chance for to find
A new house to thy mind
And built without thy cost:
Be good to the poor,
As God gives thee store,
And then my labour's not lost.

Love is that splendid triggering of human vitality the supreme activity which nature affords anyone for going out of himself toward someone else.
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Beautiful valley! through whose verdant meads
Unheard the Garigliano glides along;--
The Liris, nurse of rushes and of reeds,
The river taciturn of classic song.
