Dinah Maria Murlock Craik Quotes About Heart

Quotes about: Heart

  Real, Heart, Blessing

• Mine to the core of the heart, my beauty!
  Mine, all mine, and for love, not duty:
  Love given willingly, full and free,
  Love for love's sake - as mine to thee.
  Duty's a slave that keeps the keys,
  But Love, the master, goes in and out
  Of his goodly chambers with song and shout,
  Just as he please - just as he please.
