Each than the last more inly thine;
'Tis but the phantom OF hour the
That fades before thy waking glance,
And not that high ideal oi thought
Which forms the bounds of hope ant
chance.
Bind not the giant Of the soul
BY boctless vows to wear Il chain,
Whose narrow letters, pressing close,
Its nobler growth shall reno in twain.
The Infinite, that sees us thus
Mould It's transcendent form in clay,
Tramples our idol into dust,
And we airesh must seek and pray.
And thou 81 alt suffer to be free,
But most shall suffer TO be bound
Pour, then, the cup of thy desire
An Offering upon holy ground.
