458 THE INDIVIDUALITY OF DUTY
Experience bows a sweet contented face, Still setting-to her seal that God is true: Beneath the sun, she knows, is nothing new;
All things that go return with measured pace,
Winds, rivers, man's still recommencing race : — "While Hope beyond earth's circle strains her view, Past sun and moon, and rain and rainbow too.
Enamoured of unseen eternal grace,
Experience saith, "My God doth all things well:" And for the morrow taketh little care, Such peace and patience garrison her soul: — While Hope, who never yet hath eyed the goal. With arms flung forth, and backward-floating hair,
Touches, embraces, hugs the invisible.^
