DOUBT.
Fellj gloomy Spirit, leavo my sight! I seek not for thy dark regard That touches everything with blight, And renders life so cold and hard. Hope's-sweetest flowers droop 'neath thy glance, Truth's radiant sun thou dost eclipso : E'en Progress halts at thy advance. And Love's smile freezes on his lips. Begone ! I scorn thy evil power : Thou catist not hoid iny soul in thrall, Or fright me with thy ghastly lower: I will have faith in spite of all.
