Kate-a-Whimsies, John-a-Dreams, Still debating, still delay, And the world's a ghost that gleams-- Wavers--vanishes away! We must live while live we can; We should love while love we may. Dread in women, doubt in man . . . So the Infinite runs away.

Kate-A-Whimsies, John-A-Dreams
Kate-a-Whimsies, John-a-Dreams, Still debating, still delay, And the world's a ghost that gleams-- Wavers--vanishes away! We must live while live we can; We should love while love we may. Dread in women, doubt in man . . . So the Infinite runs away.
William Ernest Henley
1849 - 1903/Male/English
