The Law of Love

LUCIE HASKELL HILL

The earth belongs to him who loves,
And all its fullness is his own;
In kingly company he moves,
Who does not seek to walk alone.

The flowers of paradise shall bloom
For him who gives his heart's full flower,
Or sheds his spirit's sweet perfume
To cheer a brother's lonely hour.

His path shall ever grow more free,
Who sets another on the road;
His burden vanish, who can see
The way to lift another's load.

Plenty has he who love of pelf
And crowded coffers leaves behind;
He shall have life who loses self
In loving service to mankind.
