spiritual
freedom
Upright before the shining face of God,
Behold, as it were the shadow of our stature
Thrown by that light, we draw the world behind us,--
That world wherein, darkly I remember,
We thought we were as twain.

Out of the dust where they ground them;
Out of the holes where they dogged them;
Out of the hulks where they wound them
In iron, tortured and flogged them;
Out of the streets where they chased them,
Taxed them, and then bayonetted them;
Out of the homes where they spied on them
(Using their daughters and wives);
Out of the church where they fretted them,
Rotted their souls and debased them,
Trained them to answer with knives,
Then cursed them all at their
prayers!

There was an Old Person of Basing,
Whose presence of mind was amazing;
He
purchased
a steed, which he rode at full speed,
And escaped from the people of Basing.

To see the gathering grudge in every breast,
Smiles on her lips a
spleenful
joy express'd;
While on her wrinkled front, and eyebrow bent,
Sat stedfast care, and lowering discontent.

Iliad - Pope |

The sparkling stars gush forth in sudden blaze,
As twilight open flings the doors of night;
The fringe of carmine narrows in the west,
The
rippling
waves are tipped with silver light;
The bush, the path--all blend in one dull gray;
The doubtful traveller gropes his anxious way.
