Eva Gore-Booth met her life companion, Esther Roper, in Italy in 1896, and wrote:
"Was it not strange that by the tideless sea
The jar and hurry of our lives should cease?
That under olive boughs we found our peace,
And all the world's great song in Italy?

Poetry connects
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
