The soul can feel itself in its true home.
The Other Maria:
So long as man feels need of speech alone,
And nought besides, so long such words as these
May satisfy him: but the fuller life
With all its strife, its yearnings after joy,
And all its sorrow, needeth other food
To nourish and sustain the fainting soul.
For me, an inner voice did drive me on
To spend all the remaining days of life
