For there is no friend like a sister
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands

My heart is like a singing bird.
Christina RossettiOne day in the country
Is worth a month in town
Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad
Christina RossettiRemember me when I am gone away, gone far away into the silent land.
Christina RossettiAh me, but where are now the songs I sang
When life was sweet because you call’d them sweet?

Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I: But when the trees bow down their head, The wind is passing by.
Christina RossettiTrust me, I have not earned your dear rebuke,
I love, as you would have me, God the most;
Would lose not Him, but you, must one be lost,
Nor with Lot's wife cast back a faithless look
Unready to forego what I forsook;
This say I, having counted up the cost,
This, tho' I be the feeblest of God's host,
The sorriest sheep Christ shepherds with His crook.
Yet while I love my God the most, I deem
That I can never love you overmuch;
I love Him more, so let me love you too;
Yea, as I apprehend it, love is such
I cannot love you if I love not Him.
I cannot love Him if I love not you.

Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love Divine;
Love was born at Christmas;
Star and angels gave the sign.
Tread softly! All the earth is holy ground.
