All the breath and the bloom of the year in the bag of one bee:
All the wonder and wealth of the mine in the heart of one gem:
In the core of one pearl all the shade and the shine of the sea:
Breath and bloom, shade and shine, —� wonder, wealth, and — � how far above them —�
Truth that's brighter than gem,
Trust, that's purer than pearl, —�
Brightest truth, purest trust in the universe —� all were for me
In the kiss of one girl.

- Robert Browning
