Стр. 457 - Think, when our one soul understands The great Word which makes all things new, When earth breaks up and heaven expands, How will the change strike me and you In the house not made with hands?
Стр. 78 - O man ! But turn not then to seek again What first the ill began. No God, it saith; ah, wait in faith God's self-completing plan! Receive it not, but leave it not, And wait it out, O man!
