From any other soul but mine,
To seek no strength in waving reeds
Nor shade beneath a
straggling
pine;
Unless I learn to look at Grief
Unshrinking from her tear-blind eyes,
And take from Pleasure fearlessly
Whatever gifts will make me wise--
Unless I learn these things on earth,
Why was I ever given birth?

120
Around she pointed to a spacious cave,
Whose only portal was the keyless wave,[403]
(A hollow archway by the sun unseen,
Save through the billows' glassy veil of green,
In some transparent ocean holiday,
When all the finny people are at play,)
Wiped with her hair the brine from Torquil's eyes,
And clapped her hands with joy at his surprise;
Led him to where the rock appeared to jut,
And form a something like a Triton's hut; 130
For all was darkness for a space, till day,
Through clefts above let in a sobered ray;
As in some old cathedral's glimmering aisle
The dusty
monuments
from light recoil,
Thus sadly in their refuge submarine
The vault drew half her shadow from the scene.

All things within it would the world possess,
And have them in the tide of its desire:
Man hath his nature of the

world;
He is a torrent like the stars and beasts
Flowing to answer the fierce world's desire.
