Say, Love, if ever thou didst find
A woman with a constant mind?
None but one.
And what should that rare mirror be,
Some Goddess or some Queen is she?
She, she, she, and only she,
She only Queen of love and beauty.
But could thy fiery poison'd dart
At no time touch her spotless heart,
Nor come near?
She is not subject to Love's bow,
Her eye commands, her heart saith No,
No, no, no, and only no,
One No another still doth follow.
How might I that fair wonder know
That mocks desire with endless No?
See the moon
That ever in one change doth grow,
Yet still the same, and she is so,
So, so, so, and only so,
From heav'n her virtues she doth borrow.
To her then yield thy shafts and bow,
That can command affections so.
Love is free;
So are her thoughts that vanquish thee,
There is no Queen of love but she,
She, she, she, and only she,
She only Queen of love and beauty.
- John Dowland, 1563-1626

sorokin (Jessie Stickgold-Sarah):
I saw a woman sleeping. In her sleep she dreamt Life stood before her,
and held in each hand a gift -- in the one hand Love in the other
Freedom. And she said to the woman, "Choose."
And the woman waited long, and she said, "Freedom."
And Life said, "Thou hast well chosen. If thou hadst said "Love" I would
have given thee that thou didst ask for; and I would have gone from thee
and returned to thee no more. Now, the day will come when I shall bear
both gifts in one hand."
I heard the woman laugh in her sleep.
-- Olive Schreiner
