The Sensitive Plant illustrated by Charles Robinson, by Percy Bysshe Shelley

…That garden sweet, that lady fair,
And all sweet shapes and odours there,
In truth have never passed away:
‘Tis we, ‘tis ours, are changed; not they.

For love, and beauty, and delight,
There is no death nor change: their might 
Exceeds our organs, which endure
No light, being themselves obscure.
The Sensitive Plant, Percy Bysshe Shelley (via)
