CONSCIENCE
Within the soul are throned two powers,
Named Love and Hate. Begot of these,
And veiled between, a presence towers,
The shadowy Keeper of the Keys.
Named Love and Hate. Begot of these,
And veiled between, a presence towers,
The shadowy Keeper of the Keys.
With wild command or calm persuasion
This one may argue, that compel:
Vain are concealment and evasion—
For each he opens Heaven and Hell.
This one may argue, that compel:
Vain are concealment and evasion—
For each he opens Heaven and Hell.
