Nay, dearest Anna! why so grave? <br />I said, you had no soul, 'tis true! <br />For what you are, you cannot have: <br />'Tis I, that have one since I first had you! <br />_____________ <br /> <br />I have heard of reasons manifold <br />Why Love must needs be blind, <br />But this the best of all I hold-- <br />His eyes are in his mind. <br /> <br />What outward form and feature are <br />He guesseth but in part; <br />But what within is good and fair <br />He seeth with the heart.<br /><br />Samuel Taylor Coleridge<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-a-lady-offended-by-a-sportive-observation-that-women-have-no-souls/
