Lord Alfred Tennyson

In Memoriam A. H. H.: 126. Love Is and Was my Lord and King

Love is and was my Lord and King,
       And in his presence I attend
       To hear the tidings of my friend,
   Which every hour his couriers bring.
   Love is and was my King and Lord,
       And will be, tho’ as yet I keep
       Within his court on earth, and sleep
   Encompass’d by his faithful guard,
   And hear at times a sentinel
      Who moves about from place to place,
      And whispers to the worlds of space,
  In the deep night, that all is well.
