The Gifts of the Gods Lyrics
Once with life and love enarmoured
We besought the gods above;
"Send us love and life!" we clamoured
And they sent us life and love
Soon they over-filled the measure;
Soon we prayed them, "Grant us calm!"
But they answered, "Pain is pleasure!
"Crush from bitter herbs the balm!
"Forms of beauty we may fashion
"From the anguish of the heart;
"Only by the cross of passion
"Can ye win the crown of Art."
