The Vision of Prophecy and Other Poems | ||
VIII. TRUTH.
The rounded whole of Truth the mortal mind
May never mirror in its narrow sphere,
Yet, as it looks to Heaven, may hope to find
The faint reflection ever wax more clear.
May never mirror in its narrow sphere,
Yet, as it looks to Heaven, may hope to find
The faint reflection ever wax more clear.
To him that seeks, it is more largely sent,
Nor need he grieve that all can not be given;
Upon the leaf each dew-drop is content
To hold its segment of the round of Heaven.
Nor need he grieve that all can not be given;
Upon the leaf each dew-drop is content
To hold its segment of the round of Heaven.
