581 psl. - No man can come unto me, except the father who hath sent me draw him.
311 psl. - As Sir Launfal mused with a downcast face A light shone round about the place; The leper no longer crouched at his side, But stood before him glorified, Shining and tall and fair and straight As the pillar that stood by the Beautiful Gate, — Himself the Gate whereby men can Enter the temple of God in Man.
