183 psl. - Tis only through the soul That aught we know is known : — With equal voice she tells Of what we touch and see Within these bounds of life, And of a life to be ; Proclaiming One who brought us hither, And holds the keys of whence and whither.
184 psl. - Among the eternal stars Dim perturbations rise ; And all the searchers' search Does not exhaust the skies ; He Who has framed and brought us hither Holds in His hands the whence and whither. He in His science plans What no known laws foretell : The wandering fires and...
198 psl. - Tell us of a force, behind Nature's force, supreme, alone: Tell us of a larger mind Than the partial power we own : Tell us of a Being wholly Wise and great and just and holy : — Toning down the pride of mind To a wiser humbleness, Teach the limits of mankind, Weak to know, and prompt to guess, On the mighty shores that bound us Childlike gathering trifles round us...

138 psl. - Cregy and Flodden are we ! We shall sunder them, fire, and plunder them, — English boats on the English sea ! And our oath we swear, By the name we bear, By England's Queen, and England free and...
138 psl. - Her's ever and her's still, come life, come death, — God save Elizabeth ! Sidonia, Recalde, and Leyva Watch from their bulwarks in swarthy scorn, Lords and princes by Philip's...
180 psl. - Then wherefore are ye come ? Why watch a worn-out corse ? Why weep a ripple past Down the long stream of force ? If life is that which keeps Each organism whole, No atom may be traced Of what he thought the soul : It had its term of passage hither, But knew no whence, and knows no whither.
179 psl. - God's special thought for man : The natural choice that brought us hither Is silent on the whence and whither. " If God there be, or Gods, Without our science lies ; We cannot see or touch, Measure, nor analyse.
