Summum Bonum - Robert Browning  
  
All the breath and the bloom of the year in the bag of one bee:  
All the wonder and wealth of the mine in the heart of one gem:  
In the core of one pearl all the shade and the shine of the sea:  
Breath and bloom, shade and shine, wonder, wealth,  
       and--how far above them--  
Truth, that's brighter than gem,  
Trust, that's purer than pearl,--  
Brightest truth, purest trust in the universe--all were for me  
In the kiss of one girl.  
  
Robert Browning (1812-1889)
