Theft.

Thomas Winthrop Hall

The moonlight steals around the pine; Star-eyes steal radiance from thine. Low music steals upon the ear; Can there be theft when thou art near?

I steel my heart for fear of this,— I steel my heart and steal a kiss. I'd steal the sacramental wine If it were sweet as kiss of thine!
