# Memorandum of Understanding on Judicial Nominations

Signed: 24 May 2005
We respect the diligent, conscientious efforts, to date, rendered to the Senate by Majority Leader Frist and Democratic Leader Reid. This memorandum confirms an understanding among the signatories, based upon mutual trust and confidence, related to pending and future judicial nominations in the 109th Congress.
This memorandum is in two parts. Part I relates to the currently pending judicial nominees; Part II relates to subsequent individual nominations to be made by the President and to be acted upon by the Senate’s Judiciary Committee.
We have agreed to the following:
Part I: Commitments on Pending Judicial Nominations
A. Votes for Certain Nominees. We will vote to invoke cloture on the following judicial nominees: Janice Rogers Brown (D.C. Circuit), William Pryor (11th Circuit), and Priscilla Owen (5th Circuit).
B. Status of Other Nominees. Signatories make no commitment to vote for or against cloture on the following judicial nominees: William Myers (9th Circuit) and Henry Saad (6th Circuit).
Part II: Commitments for Future Nominations
A. Future Nominations. Signatories will exercise their responsibilities under the Advice and Consent Clause of the United States Constitution in good faith. Nominees should be filibustered only under extraordinary circumstances, and each signatory must use his or her own discretion and judgment in determining whether such circumstances exist.
B. Rules Changes. In light of the spirit and continuing commitments made in this agreement, we commit to oppose the rules changes in the 109th Congress, which we understand to be any amendment to or interpretation of the Rules of the Senate that would force a vote on a judicial nomination by means other than unanimous consent or Rule XXII.
We believe that, under Article II, Section 2, of the United States Constitution, the word "Advice" speaks to consultation between the Senate and the President with regard to the use of the President's power to make nominations. We encourage the Executive branch of government to consult with members of the Senate, both Democratic and Republican, prior to submitting a judicial nomination to the Senate for consideration.
Such a return to the early practices of our government may well serve to reduce the rancor that unfortunately accompanies the advice and consent process in the Senate.
We firmly believe this agreement is consistent with the traditions of the United States Senate that we as Senators seek to uphold.

# Maurine And Other Poems/Dust-sealed

I know not wherefore, but mine eyes  See bloom, where other eyes see blight. They find a rainbow, a sunrise,  Where others but discern deep night.
Men call me an enthusiast,  And say I look through gilded haze: Because where’er my gaze is cast,  I see something that calls for praise.
I say, “Behold those lovely eyes—  That tinted cheek of flower-like grace.” They answer in amused surprise:  “We thought it a common face.”
I say, “Was ever seen more fair?  I seem to walk in Eden’s bowers.” They answer, with a pitying air,  “The weeds are choking out the flowers.”
I know not wherefore, but God lent  A deeper vision to my sight. On whatsoe’er my gaze is bent  I catch the beauty Infinite;
That underlying, hidden half  That all things hold of Deity. So let the dull crowd sneer and laugh—  Their eyes are blind, they cannot see.
# Maurine And Other Poems/God’s Measure

God measures souls by their capacity For entertaining his best Angel, Love. Who loveth most is nearest kin to God, Who is all Love, or Nothing.
He who sits And looks out on the palpitating world, And feels his heart swell within him large enough To hold all men within it, he is near His great Creator’s standard, though he dwells Outside the pale of churches, and knows not A feast-day from a fast-day, or a line Of Scripture even. What God wants of us Is that outreaching bigness that ignores All littleness of aims, or loves, or creeds, And clasps all Earth and Heaven in its embrace.
# Maurine And Other Poems/If

Dear love, if you and I could sail away,  With snowy pennons to the winds unfurled, Across the waters of some unknown bay,  And find some island far from all the world;
If we could dwell there, ever more alone,  While unrecorded years slip by apace, Forgetting and forgotten and unknown  By aught save native song-birds of the place;
If Winter never visited that land,  And Summer’s lap spilled o’er with fruits and flowers, And tropic trees cast shade on every hand,  And twinèd boughs formed sleep-inviting bowers;
If from the fashions of the world set free,  And hid away from all its jealous strife, I lived alone for you, and you for me—  Ah! then, dear love, how sweet were wedded life.
But since we dwell here in the crowded way,  Where hurrying throngs rush by to seek for gold, And all is commonplace and workaday,  As soon as love’s young honeymoon grows old;
Since fashion rules and nature yields to art,  And life is hurt by daily jar and fret, ’Tis best to shut such dreams down in the heart  And go our ways alone, love, and forget.
# Maurine And Other Poems/La Mort d’Amour

When was it that love died? We were so fond,  So very fond a little while ago.  With leaping pulses, and blood all aglow, We dreamed about a sweeter life beyond,
When we should dwell together as one heart,  And scarce could wait that happy time to come.  Now side by side we sit with lips quite dumb, And feel ourselves a thousand miles apart.
How was it that love died? I do not know.  I only know that all its grace untold  Has faded into gray! I miss the gold From our dull skies; but did not see it go.
Why should love die? We prized it, I am sure;  We thought of nothing else when it was ours;  We cherished it in smiling, sunlit bowers: It was our all; why could it not endure?
Alas, we know not how, or when, or why  This dear thing died. We only know it went,  And left us dull, cold, and indifferent; We who found heaven once in each other’s sigh.
How pitiful it is, and yet how true  That half the lovers in the world, one day,  Look questioning in each other’s eyes this way And know love’s gone forever, as we do.
Sometimes I cannot help but think, dear heart,  As I look out o’er all the wide, sad earth  And see love’s flame gone out on many a hearth, That those who would keep love must dwell apart.
# Maurine And Other Poems/Life

I feel the great immensity of life. All little aims slip from me, and I reach My yearning soul toward the Infinite.
As when a mighty forest, whose green leaves Have shut it in, and made it seem a bower For lovers’ secrets, or for children’s sports, Casts all its clustering foliage to the winds, And lets the eye behold it, limitless, And full of winding mysteries of ways: So now with life that reaches out before, And borders on the unexplained Beyond.
I see the stars above me, world on world: I hear the awful language of all Space; I feel the distant surging of great seas, That hide the secrets of the Universe In their eternal bosoms; and I know That I am but an atom of the Whole.
# Maurine And Other Poems/All Roads that Lead to God are Good

All roads that lead to God are good.  What matters it, your faith, or mine?  Both centre at the goal divine Of love’s eternal Brotherhood.
The kindly life in house or street—  The life of prayer and mystic rite—  The student’s search for truth and light— These paths at one great Junction meet.
Before the oldest book was writ,  Full many a prehistoric soul  Arrived at this unchanging goal, Through changeless Love, that leads to it.
What matters that one found his Christ  In rising sun, or burning fire?  If faith within him did not tire, His longing for the Truth sufficed.
Before our modern hell was brought  To edify the modern world,  Full many a hate-filled soul was hurled In lakes of fire by its own thought.
A thousand creeds have come and gone,  But what is that to you or me?  Creeds are but branches of a tree— The root of love lives on and on.
Though branch by branch proves withered wood,  The root is warm with precious wine.  Then keep your faith and leave me mine— All roads that lead to God are good.
# Maurine And Other Poems/Applause

I hold it one of the sad certain laws Which makes our failures sometime seem more kind Than that success which brings sure loss behind— True greatness dies, when sounds the world’s applause Fame blights the object it would bless, because  Weighed down with men’s expectancy, the mind  Can no more soar to those far heights, and find That freedom which its inspiration was. When once we listen to its noisy cheers  Or hear the populace’ approval, then We catch no more the music of the spheres,  Or walk with gods, and angels, but with men. Till, impotent from our self-conscious fears, The plaudits of the world turn into sneers.
# Maurine And Other Poems/Life is Love

Is anyone sad in the world, I wonder?  Does anyone weep on a day like this, With the sun above and the green earth under?  Why, what is life but a dream of bliss?
With the sun and the skies and the birds above me,  Birds that sing as they wheel and fly— With the winds to follow and say they loved me—  Who could be lonely? O ho, not I!
Somebody said in the street this morning,  As I opened my window to let in the light, That the darkest day of the world was dawning;  But I looked, and the East was a gorgeous sight
One who claims that he knows about it  Tells me the Earth is a vale of sin; But I and the bees and the birds—we doubt it,  And think it a world worth living in.
Someone says that hearts are fickle,  That love is sorrow, that life is care, And the reaper Death, with his shining sickle,  Gathers whatever is bright and fair.
I told the thrush, and we laughed together—  Laughed till the woods were all a-ring; And he said to me, as he plumed each feather,  “Well, people must croak, if they cannot sing!”
Up he flew, but his song, remaining,  Rang like a bell in my heart all day, And silenced the voices of weak complaining  That pipe like insects along the way.
O world of light, and O world of beauty!  Where are there pleasures so sweet as thine? Yes, life is love, and love is duty;  And what heart sorrows? O no, not mine!
# Maurine And Other Poems/In the Night

Sometimes at night, when I sit and write,  I hear the strangest things,— As my brain grows hot with burning thought,  That struggles for form and wings, I can hear the beat of my swift blood’s feet,  As it speeds with a rush and a whir From heart to brain and back again,  Like a race-horse under the spur.
With my soul’s fine ear I listen and hear  The tender Silence speak, As it leans on the breast of Night to rest,  And presses his dusky cheek. And the darkness turns in its sleep, and yearns  For something that is kin; And I hear the hiss of a scorching kiss,  As it folds and fondles Sin.
In its hurrying race through leagues of space,  I can hear the Earth catch breath, As it heaves and moans, and shudders and groans,  And longs for the rest of Death. And high and far, from a distant star,  Whose name is unknown to me, I hear a voice that says, “Rejoice,  For I keep ward o’er thee!”
Oh, sweet and strange are the sounds that range  Through the chambers of the night; And the watcher who waits by the dim, dark gates  May hear, if he lists aright.
# Maurine And Other Poems/Lean Down

Lean down and lift me higher, Josephine! From the Eternal Hills hast thou not seen How I do strive for heights? but lacking wings, I cannot grasp at once those better things To which I in my inmost soul aspire. Lean down and lift me higher.
I grope along—not desolate or sad, For youth and hope and health all keep me glad; But too bright sunlight, sometimes, makes us blind, And I do grope for heights I cannot find. Oh, thou must know my one supreme desire— Lean down and lift me higher.
Not long ago we trod the self-same way. Thou knowest how, from day to fleeting day Our souls were vexed with trifles, and our feet Were lured aside to by-paths which seemed sweet, But only served to hinder and to tire; Lean down and lift me higher.
Thou hast gone onward to the heights serene, And left me here, my loved one, Josephine; I am content to stay until the end, For life is full of promise; but, my friend, Canst thou not help me in my best desire And lean, and lift me higher?
Frail as thou wert, thou hast grown strong and wise, And quick to understand and sympathize With all a full soul’s needs. It must be so, Thy year with God hath made thee great, I know Thou must see how I struggle and aspire— Oh, warm me with a breath of heavenly fire, And lean, and lift me higher.
