To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The unknown life, and strange its stirring is. The babe knows nought of life, yet clothed in itAnd yearning only for its mother's breastFeeds thus the unheeded thing--and as for thee, That life thou hast is hidden from thine eyes, And when it yearns, thou, knowing not for what, Wouldst fain appease it with one grand, deep joy, One draught of passionate peace--but wilt thou knowThe other name of joy, the better nameOf peace? It is thy Father's name. Thy lifeYearns to its Source. The spirit thirs...ts for God, Even the living God.
But "No, " thou sayest, "My heart is all in ruins with pain, my feetTread a dry desert where there is no wayNor water. I look back, and deep through timeThe old words come but faintly up the trackTrod by the sons of men. The man He sent, The Prince of life, methinks I could have lovedIf I had looked once in His deep man's eyes. But long ago He died, and long agoIs gone. " He is not dead, He cannot go. Men's faith at first was like a mastering stream, Like Jordan "the descender" leaping downPure from his snow; and warmed of tropic heatHiding himself in verdure: then at lastIn a Dead Sea absorbed, as faith of doubt.
