Page 297 - So careful of the type?" but no. From scarped cliff and quarried stone She cries, "A thousand types are gone: I care for nothing, all shall go. "Thou makest thine appeal to me: I bring to life, I bring to death: The spirit does not mean the breath: I know no more.
Page 297 - So careful of the type?' but no. From scarped cliff and quarried stone She cries, 'A thousand types are gone: I care for nothing, all shall go. Thou makest thine appeal to me: I bring to life, I bring to death: The spirit does but mean the breath: I know no more.' And he, shall he, Man, her last work, who seem'd so fair, Such splendid purpose in his eyes, Who roll'd the psalm to wintry skies, Who built him fanes of fruitless prayer, Who trusted God was love indeed And love Creation's final law—...

Page 298 - The sagacity of the poet here, — that strange sagacity which seems so nearly akin to the prophetic spirit, — suggests in this noble passage the true reading of the enigma. The appearance of man upon the scene of being constitutes a new era in creation; the operations of a new instinct come into play, — that instinct which anticipates a life after the grave, and reposes in implicit faith upon a God alike just and good, who is the pledged " rewarder of all who diligently seek him.
Page 299 - ... one painful worker, in the midst of present trouble, for a state into which he is never to enter, — the befooled expectant of a happy future, which he is never to see ? Assuredly no. He who keeps faith with all His humbler creatures — who gives to even the bee and the dormouse the winter for which they prepare — will to a certainty not break faith with man, — with man, alike the deputed lord of the present creation, and the chosen heir of all the future.
