    “The worth that worthiness should move
    Is love, that is the bow of Love.

    Yet without love nought worth to me.”

    That when it was swept by, leaves summits stained.
    Oh, blood will out. It cannot be contained.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood
    Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
    Whelms us to the tired land where tasseling corn,
    Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
    Rot on the vine: in that land were we born.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
