At a Hasty Wedding

 

If hours be years the twain are blest,

For now they solace swift desire

By bonds of every bond the best,

If hours be years.  The twain are blest

Do eastern stars slope never west,

Nor pallid ashes follow fire:

If hours be years the twain are blest,

For now they solace swift desire.

 

Thomas Hardy
