And vi^orldlings blot the temple's gold With uses vile and base. Hence all thy groans and travail pains. Hence, till thy God return, In wisdom's ear thy blithest strains, O Nature, seem to mourn. John Keble (From The Christian Tear) HeA%Ke3^! HEARKEN, hearken ! God speaketh to thy soul ; Using the supreme voice which doth confound All life with consciousness of Deity, All senses into one ; As the seer-saint of Patmos, loving John, For whom did backward roll The cloud-gate of the future, turned ...to see The Voice which spake. It speaketh now — Through the regular breath of the calm creation. Through the moan of the creature's desolation, Striking, and its stroke, resembling The memory of a solemn vow, Which pierceth the din of a festival To one in the midst — and he letteth fall The cup, with a sudden trembling. Hearken, hearken ! God speaketh in thy soul ; Saying, " O thou, that movest With feeble steps across this earth of Mine, To break beside the fount thy golden bowl, And spill its purple wine— The Way Look up to heaven and see how like a scroll My right hand hath thine immortality In an eternal grasping !
