...ags and prancing nags
And echoing roll of drums.
Still truth proclaims this motto,
In letters of living light, -

And the voices of fame with one acclaim
May call him great and just,
Let those who applaud take warning,
And keep this motto in sight, -
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.

Let those who have failed take courag...Read More

...Then I whispered "I see
The sweet secret thou keepest.
And the yearning for ME
That thou wistfully weepest!
And the question is 'License or Banns?',
though undoubtedly Banns are the cheapest." 

"Be my Hero," said I,
"And let ME be Leander!"
But I lost her reply -
Something ending with "gander" -
For the omnibus rattled so loud that no
mortal could quite understand her....Read More

...on the plain?
All things possess their lives
Save man, whose task and desire
Transcend his power and his will.

The question is over and still;
Nothing replies: but the earth 
Takes on a lovelier hue
From a cloud that neighbored the sun,
That the sun burned down and through,
Till it glowed like a seraph's wing;
The fields that were gray and dun
Are warm in the flowing light;
Fair in the west the night 
Strikes in with vibrant star.

Something has stirred afar

...'s good order, edifice and edification, and appointing place, where the Lord has not appointed. 

For the Ethiopian question is already solved in that the Blacks are the children of Cain. 

For the phenomenon of the horizontal moon is the truth -- she appears bigger in the horizon because she actually is so. 

For it was said of old 'can the Ethiopian change his skin?' the Lord has answered the question by his merit and death he shall. -- 

For the moon is mag...Read More

What are the objects, then, that man should consider most important? 

What sort of a question is that he asks them.

The eye only discovers the visible slowly.

It floats before us asking to be worn,

offering "we must think about objects at the very moment 
when all their meaning is abandoning them"

and "the title provides a protection from significance" 

and "we are responsible for the universe."

Mighty regiments now are fighting

Till the concrete question is hurled
When starving or when eating:
Whose tomorrow is tomorrow?

...remain.
They cast their eyes on the raging sea,
And none will attempt the goblet to gain.
And a third time the question is asked by the king:
"Is there none that will dare in the gulf now to spring?"

Yet all as before in silence stand,
When a page, with a modest pride,
Steps out of the timorous squirely band,
And his girdle and mantle soon throws aside,
And all the knights, and the ladies too,
The noble stripling with wonderment view.

And when he draws nigh to ...Read More
