Status Updates From The Palace in the Garden

Lovely book. So refreshing after the last ;)
Here is a gorgeous little poem from it:

"I know thee not; but well my heart
 Interprets, darling, what thou art;
 Light of some old ancestral hall,
 Queen-gem of some proud coronal!
 For, certes, such a perfect grace,
 Such lustrous loveliness of face,
 Such artless majesty as thine
 Proclaims thee of no sordid line!"
