Love's Philosophy

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean
The winds of heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion
Nothing in the world is single
All things by a law divine In one another's being mingle
Why not I with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another
No sister-flower would be forgiven If it disdain'd its brother
And the sunlight clasps the earth
And the moonbeams kiss the sea
What are all these kissings worth, If thou kiss not me?
