Summum Bonum

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
