which I will some day write for myself."

Other tributes to his wife are: `In Absence', `Acknowledgment',
`Laus Mariae', `Special Pleading', `Evening Song', `Thou and I',
`One in Two', and `Two in One'; while she is referred to

It will be interesting to compare `My Springs' with other poems on the eyes.
Among the most noteworthy* may be cited Shakespeare's

"And those eyes, the break of day,
Lights that do mislead the morn;"

Lodge's

"Her eyes are sapphires set in snow,
Resembling heaven by every wink;
The Gods do fear whenas they glow,
And I do tremble when I think,
Heigh ho, would she were mine!"

Jonson's

"Drink to me only with thine eyes
And I will pledge with mine," etc.;

Herrick's

"Sweet, be not proud of those two eyes
Which starlike sparkle in their skies;"
