Bows down its fragrant head;
From the lands where the gems are born -

substratum
of qualities which have their existence in dimensions, and, on the other hand, that matter which is neither incompatible with the one nor with the other, nevertheless, they are one and the same thing, and the whole difference (as has been said many times) depends on the contraction of matter into corporeal being or incorporeal being.

XXX
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up
remembrance
of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
For precious friends hid in death's dateless night,
And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.

Now a few
years later the Princes of Kiev accepted for themselves
and their people the Eastern faith, so when, in 1054, the
Church of Rome was divorced from that of Byzantium
a definition of confessional spheres of influence was in-
volved ; into this business the prudent
directors
of the
two faiths entered with a zeal that betrayed anxiety for
temporal as well as for spiritual aggrandizement, and in
its course that rift was made which immediately rent the
Slavonic world into two halves and prevents their recon-
ciliation to-day.
