90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books May I remember always when, Your glance in secrecy met mine, And in my face your love was like A visibly reflected sign.

May I remember always when, We drank our wine as darkness died, My friend and I, alone at dawn, Though God was there too, at our side.
