DESPONDENCY.
And is this all? and what availThese cloistral watchings pale?
And what to walk in holy heed
Beneath th'o'erarching Creed?
Or track Heav'n-lighten'd caves of thought,
In prayer which Jesus taught?—
These to His presence-chamber bring,
Where, as an abject thing,
In that true light for evermore
We should ourselves deplore.
