by Alfred Lord Tennyson
Helen's tower, here I stand, Dominant over sea and land. Son's love built me, and I hold Mother's love in letter'd gold. Love is in and out of time, I am mortal stone and lime. Would my granite girth were strong As either love, to last as long I should wear my crown entire To and thro' the Doomsday fire, And be found of angel eyes In earth's recurring Paradise.
