| William Wilfred Campbell, comp. The Oxford Book of Canadian Verse. 1913. | | | | Love’s Land | | By Isabella Valancy Crawford (1850–1887) |
| | | OH, Love builds on the azure sea, | |
| And Love builds on the golden sand, | |
| And Love builds on the rose-winged cloud, | |
| And sometimes Love builds on the land! | |
| |
| Oh, if Love build on sparkling sea, | 5 |
| And if Love build on golden strand, | |
| And if Love build on rosy cloud, | |
| To Love these are the solid land! | |
| |
| Oh, Love will build his lily walls, | |
| And Love his pearly roof will rear, | 10 |
| On cloud, or land, or mist, or sea— | |
| Love’s solid land is everywhere! | | | | |
