Maxioms by Philip James Bailey
The worst men often give the best advice.

Ah, nothing comes to us too soon but sorrow.
Ah, nothing comes to us too soon but sorrow.
Could I love less, I should be happier now.
Could I love less, I should be happier now.
The death-change comes.
Death is another life. We bow our heads
At going out, we think, and read more
The death-change comes.
Death is another life. We bow our heads
At going out, we think, and enter straight
Another golden chamber of the king's
Larger than this we leave, and lovelier.

The story, flower-like, closes thus its leaves.
The will of God is all in all. He makes,
Destroys, remakes, for His own pleasure, all.
The sun, centre and sire of light,
The keystone of the world-built arch of heaven.
The sun, centre and sire of light,
The keystone of the world-built arch of heaven.
