To art its highest sway;
The things that in the life we live
Are with us every day.
And never wrought the dreamer yet
49, Whose work true honor brings
But that his fabrics base was set
Firm on life's common things.
For these dear things to eyes that see
Not common are nor plain
Beauty 10 it's supreme degree
~ Lives in 9helr homely grain.
And when Gods sweet-toned seraph
band
Creations mystery sings.
1t tells how sea and sky and land
Were made life's common things.
