ART.

Let art be in ALL" one time said,
And straightway stirred the hypercritic gall.
I said not. Let technique be all in all,'
But art-a wider meaning. Worthless, dead
The shell without its pearl, the corpse of
things
Mere words are till the spirit lend them
wings,
The poet who breathes no soul into his lutte
Falls short of art; t were better he were mute.
The workmanship wherewith the gold is
wrought
Adds yet richness to the richest gold;
Who lacks the art to shape his thought hold,
Were little poorer if he lacked the thought.
The statues slumber were unbroken still
Within the marble, had the hand no skill
Disparage not the magic touch that gives
The formless thought the grace whereby it
lives!
