THE UNANIMITY
Truth seek we both—Thou, in the life without thee and around;
I in the Heart within—by both can Truth alike be found;
The healthy eye can through the world the great Creator track—
The healthy heart is but the glass which gives creation back.

THE SCIENCE OF POLITICS
All that thou dost be right—to that alone confine thy view,
And halt within the certain rule—the All that's right to do!
True zeal the what already is would sound and perfect see;
False zeal would sound and perfect make the something that's to be!

TO ASTRONOMERS
Of the Nebulæ and planets do not babble so to me;
What! is Nature only mighty inasmuch as you can see?
Inasmuch as you can measure her immeasurable ways,
As she renders world on world, sun and system to your gaze?
Though through space your object be the Sublimest to embrace,
Never the Sublime abideth—where you vainly search—in space!
