Faith

by Patience Worth

Patience Worth

Faith be the shadow of love,
Cleaved unto love's side for aye.
Love be born with nay why
Upon its lips and likewise Faith.
He who questions faith receiveth silence,
For the bond twixt faith and love
Be too holy for prating.

    by Emily Dickinson
    914 I cannot be ashamed Because I cannot see The love you offer- Magnitude Reverses Modesty And I cannot be proud Because a Height so high Involves Alpine Requirements And Services of Snow.
