[Strangers to Thy love are they]
If ye love Me, keep My commandments.
—xiv. 15.
Strangers to Thy love are they
Who call it bondage to obey:
12
Obedience is the truth of love;
Love which no compulsion knows,
But freely from the Fountain flows,
Returns spontaneous to the skies,
Pure as the streams of paradise.
