Although it stung like whips;
That I loved all lovely things
And I tried to take their stings
With gay
unembittered
lips;
That I loved with all my strength,
To my soul's full depth and length,
Careless if my heart must break,
That I sang as children sing
Fitting tunes to everything,
Loving life for its own sake.
