She was too old for death, too old for life,
For as if jealous of all living forms
She had lain there before bivalves began
To catacomb their shells on western mountains.”

“A kiss is but a kiss now! and no wave
Of a great flood that whirls me to the sea.
But, as you will! well sit contentedly,
And eat our pot of honey on the grave.”
—George Meredith (18281909)
“We say
This changes and that changes. Thus the constant
Violets, doves, girls, bees and hyacinths
Are inconstant objects of inconstant cause
In a universe of inconstancy.”
