Reveiation
« l[ i could come again to tJiab clear place Whore once 1 came, wheio Beauty Jived and moved, Where, by the sea, i saw her lace to fate, That soul alive by -which tho world lias loved. 11, as 1 stood at gaze among tho leaves, She would appeal' again as once before While the red herdsman gathered up his sheaves And brimming waters trembled up the shore. H, as I gazed, her Beauty that war? dumb, In that old time, before I learned to speak. Would lean to me and revelation come Words to the lips and colour to the cheek. Joy with its searing-iron •would burn me wise; 1 should know all; all powers, all mysteries. —John Mnsefiold.
