Hands of invisible spirits touch the strings Of that mysterious instrument, the soul, And play the prelude of our fate. We hear The voice prophetic, and are not alone.
Prec. That is my faith. Dost thou believe these warnings?
Vict. So far as this. Our feelings and our thoughts Tend ever on, and rest not in the Present.
As drops of rain fall into some dark well.
And from below comes a scarce audible sound.
So fall our thoughts into the dark Hereafter, And their mysterious echo reaches us.
Prec. ...I have felt it so, but found no words to say it !
I cannot reason ; I can only feel !
But thou hast language for all thoughts and feel- ings.
Thou art a scholar ; and sometimes I think We cannot walk together in this world !
The distance that divides us is too great !
Henceforth thy pathway lies among the stars ; I must not hold thee back.
Vict. Thou little sceptic !
Dost thou stiU doubt ? What I most prize in woman Is her affections, not her intellect !
The intellect is finite ; but the affections Are infinite, and cannot be exhausted.
