A wild and bitter pride in thus being past

The power of thy dark glance! My spirit now

Is wound about by one sole mighty grief;

Thy scorn hath lost its sting. Thou may’st reproach——

Her. I come not to reproach thee. Heaven doth work

By many agencies; and in its hour

There is no insect which the summer breeze

From the green leaf shakes trembling, but may serve

Its deep unsearchable purposes, as well

As the great ocean, or th’ eternal fires
