Algernon Charles Swinburne - The Channel Tunnel: Sonnets

2014-11-10 3 Dailymotion

NOT for less love, all glorious France, to thee, <br />‘Sweet enemy’ called in days long since at end. <br />Now found and hailed of England sweeter friend, <br />Bright sister of our freedom now, being free; <br />Not for less love or faith in friendship we <br />Whose love burnt ever toward thee reprehend <br />The vile vain greed whose pursy dreams portend <br />Between our shores suppression of the sea. <br />Not by dull toil of blind mechanic art <br />Shall these be linked for no man’s force to part <br />Nor length of years and changes to divide, <br />But union only of trust and loving heart <br />And perfect faith in freedom strong to abide <br />And spirit at one with spirit on either side.<br /><br />Algernon Charles Swinburne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-channel-tunnel-sonnets/
