Sonnets From the Portuguese

by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

 

 

II.

 

BUT only three in all God's universe

Have heard this word thou hast said; Himself, beside

Thee speaking and me listening! and replied

One of us … _that_ was God! … and laid the curse

 

So darkly on my eyelids as to amerce

My sight from seeing thee, --- that if I had died,

The deathweights, placed there, would have signified

Less absolute exclusion. “Nay” is worse

 

From God than from all others, O my friend!

Men could not part us with their worldly jars,

Nor the seas change us, nor the tempests bend:

 

Our hands would touch for all the mountain-bars;---

And, heaven being rolled between us at the end,

We should but vow the faster for the stars.
