If we grant
That not to suffer, is to want
The conscience of the jubilant,--
"If ignorance of anguish is
_But_ ignorance, and mortals miss
Far prospects, by a level bliss,--
"If, as two colours must be viewed
In a visible image, mortals should
Need good and evil, to see good,--
"If to speak nobly, comprehends
To feel profoundly,--if the ends
Of power and suffering, Nature blends,--
"If poets on the tripod must
Writhe like the Pythian to make just
Their oracles and merit trust,--
"If every vatic word that sweeps
To change the world must pale their lips
And leave their own souls in eclipse,--
"If to search deep the universe
Must pierce the
searcher
with the curse,
Because that bolt (in man's reverse)
"Was shot to the heart o' the wood and lies
Wedged deepest in the best,--if eyes
That look for visions and surprise
"From influent angels, must shut down
Their eyelids first to sun and moon,
The head asleep upon a stone,--
"If ONE who did redeem you back,
By His own loss, from final wrack,
Did consecrate by touch and track
"Those temporal sorrows till the taste
Of brackish waters of the waste
Is salt with tears He dropt too fast,--
"If all the crowns of earth must wound
With prickings of the thorns He found,--
If saddest sighs swell sweetest sound,--
