Response to Playing for Kisses |
|
"Yes," she’d answer him one night;
And "Yes," one morning, Sir, she’d say.
Colours seen by candlelight,
Look the same by light of day.
Learned to win the lady's faith
Nobly, as the thing is high;
Bravely, as for life and death---
With a loyal gravity.
Led her from the festive boards,
Points her to the starry skies,
Guards her, by his truthful words,
Pure from courtship's flatteries.
By his truth she shall be true---
Ever true, as those of yore---
And her Yes, once said to him,
Shall be Yes for evermore.
The Lady’s Yes
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
