And how shall he whose mission is to bringThe soul to worship at its rightful shrine, Seeing in Beauty what is most divine, Give out the mightiest impulse, and thus flingHis soul into the future, scatteringThe living seed of wisdom? Shall there shineFrom underneath his hand a matchless lineOf high earth-beauties, till the wide world ringWith the far clang that tells a missioned soul, Kneeling to homage all about his feet?Alas for such a gift were this the whole, The only bread of life men had t...o eat!Lo, I behold them dead about him now, And him the heart of death, for all that brow!
VIII. If _Thou_ didst pass by Art, thou didst not scornThe souls that by such symbol yearned in vainFrom Truth and Love true nourishment to gain:On thy warm breast, so chilly and forlornFell these thy nurslings little more than bornThat thou wast anguished, and there fell a rainFrom thy blest eyelids, and in grief and painThou partedst from them yet one night and mornTo find them wholesome food and nourishmentInstead of what their blindness took for such, Laying thyself a seed in earthen rentFrom which, outspringing to the willing touch, Riseth for all thy children harvest great, For which they will all learn to bless thee yet.
