Kipling (from “Lispeth”)

 

Plaintalesfromthehills1888.jpg

Look, you have cast out Love! What Gods are these
You bid me please?
The Three in One, the One in Three? Not so!
To my own Gods I go. It may be they shall give me greater ease
Than your cold Christ and tangled Trinities.

Prefatory poem to the short story  found in  Plain Tales from the Hills (1888)
