part!
1t is not wisdom to .be only wise,
And on the inward vision close the
eyes,
But it is wisdom to believe the heart
Columbus found a world, and had no
chart,
Save one that faith deciphered in the
Skies:
To trust the souls invincible surmise
Was all his science and his only art.
Our knowledge is a torch of smoky
pine
That lights the pathway but one step
ahead
Across a void Of mystery and dread
Bid, then, the tender light of faith
to shine
BY which alone the mortal heart is
led
Unto the thinking of the thought di-
vine.
