To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Better the Hindu fatalist's despair Than bend before a Sultan of the East With bowstrings, gibbets, poisoned chalices For foes, and harems for his sycophants.
Digitized by Google Questionings. 63 " Lo, he blasphemeth," and their mouths are full With shafted words. The blasphemy is his Who thinks, not who denies, the hideous lie.
What spoils my life ? — The sin a thousand years Remote of some undreamed progenitor ?
Whose is the prime of guilt ? Who then should suffer- I who inherit, he who left
...the sin Envenoming like a usurer's hate To blight in thought-past eons, or the power Who made the law that this should ruin me ?
But the last word is said not. Who shall say Heaven hath a law against the law of earth ; Or love and justice, truth and charity, All that do here make our transcendent good Seem foul and worthless to diviner eyes ?
Blest is the hope that after life and death, Changed it may be, but then our truer selves, In what changed sphere soever, we shall dwell Not strangered quite from each ; and we shall know Those earlier departed whose kind eyes, Transfigured faces and celestial speech Shall be our earliest welcome what time new From the transforming touch of death we come By unreturning ways from life to life.
