epigrammatical observation
When reduced to silence
love still goes on
more glowingly and intensively
than if it was outspoken,
for silent love keeps quiet
only to control its fervour,
utter honesty and overwhelming truth,
sincerity and depth of feeling
to maintain itself
and save it for eternity
to keep it burning
always with the fullest flame
but the more faithfully in secret.
