And thy quick beams, whose jets of life inspire

Life to the spirit, passion for the light,

Dark Earth since first she lost her lord from sight

Has viewed and felt them sweep her as a lyre.


SENSE AND SPIRIT.

The senses loving Earth or well or ill,

Ravel yet more the riddle of our lot.

The mind is in their trammels, and lights not

By trimming fear-bred tales; nor does the will
