 The grand perhaps! We look on helplessly, there the old misgivings, crooked questions are.

 The high that proved too high, the heroic for earth too hard, / The passion that left the ground to lose itself in the sky, / Are music sent up to God by the lover and the bard; / Enough that he heard it once; we shall hear it by-and-by.

 The hills, like giants at a hunting, lay, / Chin upon hand, to see the game at bay.

 The Life, Death, Miracles of Saint Somebody, / Saint Somebody Else, his Miracles, Death and Life, - / With this, one glance at the lettered back of which, / And `Stall!' cried I: a lira made it mine.

 The Lord will have mercy on Jacob yet, / And again in his border see Israel set.

 The moment eternal - just that and no more - When ecstasy's utmost we clutch at the core While cheeks burn, arms open, eyes shut, and lips meet!

 The moment eternal - just that and no more - When ecstasy's utmost we clutch at the core While cheeks burn, arms open, eyes shut, and lips meet!

 The moth's kiss, first! / Kiss me as if you made believe / You were not sure, this eve, / How my face, your flower, had pursed / Its petals up.

 The only fault's with time; / All men become good creatures: but so slow!

 The rain set early in to-night, / The sullen wind was soon awake. / It tore the elm-tops down for spite. / And did its worst to vex the lake.

 The rest may reason and welcome; 'tis we musicians know.

 The world and its way have a certain worth.

 The year's at the spring / And day's at the morn; / Morning's at seven; / The hillside's dew-pearled; / The lark's on the wing; / The snail's on the thorn; / God's in his heaven - / All's right with the world!

 Then, welcome each rebuff / That turns earth's smoothness rough, / Each sting that bids nor sit nor stand but go!

 There are those who believe something, and therefore will tolerate nothing; and on the other hand, those who tolerate everything, because they believe nothing
