Title
Mingled In Love's Mystic Tides
Description
When once the mountain stream has mingled with the sea.
Think you it can again a mountain stream 'er be?
Does it not take the grander and more awful form
Of the blue waters, where abides the king of storm?
So, lives that once have mingled in Love's mystic tide
No! e'en the God of Love can evermore divide!
No rule of church or state can turn the precious wine
Back to the grape that ripened on the fruitful vine.
Think you it can again a mountain stream 'er be?
Does it not take the grander and more awful form
Of the blue waters, where abides the king of storm?
So, lives that once have mingled in Love's mystic tide
No! e'en the God of Love can evermore divide!
No rule of church or state can turn the precious wine
Back to the grape that ripened on the fruitful vine.
