435 ページ - But, perfect in evefy part, Has the potter's moulded shape, Leap of man's quickened heart, Throe of his thought's escape, Stings of his soul which dart Through the barrier of flesh, till keen She climbs from the calm and clear, Through turbidity all between, From the known to the unknown here, Heaven's "Shall be,
438 ページ - Yearning, and on the soul sweet grace inducest — Souls against whom thy hostile march is made — Never to me be manifest in ire, Nor, out of time and tune, my peace invade !
