עמוד 92 - Perplext in faith, but pure in deeds, At last he beat his music out. There lives more faith in honest doubt, Believe me, than in half the creeds.
עמוד 106 - It is important, therefore, to hold fast to this: that poetry is at bottom a criticism of life; that the greatness of a poet lies in his powerful and beautiful application of ideas to life,— to the question: How to live.
עמוד 79 - Our little systems have their day; They have their day and cease to be; They are but broken lights of thee, And thou, O Lord, art more than they.
עמוד 94 - We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related; the eternal ONE.

עמוד 93 - ... many here as now we are, As happy in their perfectness of love, — And seen, unmoved, as many in despair. She will arise, and through the darkling trees Gaze down, as now, through countless centuries, While other lovers here shall breathe their vows, When we have vanished like this passing breeze. Oh, dreadful mystery ! Thought beats its wings, And strains against the utmost bound of things, And drops exhausted back to earth again, And moans, distressed by vague imaginings.
עמוד 105 - In this attitude there was a great deal of naivete and there was to be much disillusion. Nevertheless it was widespread and, during the last three decades of the eighteenth century, optimistically believed by most important sections of English society. The position, therefore, at the end...
