Mr.. Vests poems are not all az

prejudiced by schools of thought free
from the authority OF the learned, the
poet utters the natural impulses OF the
heart He reminds us OF WordswOrth's
sonnet on "A Poet" in which he says:
How does the meadow flower It's bloom
unfold?
Because the lovely little flower is free
Down to its roots, ana in that freedom
bold;
And so the grandeur OF the forest
tree
Comes not by casting in a formal mold,
But from its own divine Vitality
Perhaps no poem presents more
phases of the authors thought than

REVELATION.
What hast thou heard o soul, with In
ward ear.
That makes all written Word to thee
seem naught?
Upon the Shore Eternal have caught
The rythmic murmer: one are There
and Here.
And ne and death alike are void Of

The rose to beauty, and mans spirit
fraught
with godllke aims, still pulsates every
sphere.
We live, we lovo-wo vanish Still we
And in eternal round We live and
grow,
And love again and rise to more

The fields with beauty rife7
What power hath Truth TO stir our
zeal?
What cry hath human need?
Mid earth's conflicting woe and veal,
What voices should be heed?
What arc we here for? Here to grow
In every grace divine
| The beauty Of the world TO know.
And In its beauty shine;
| To follow Truth Where'er H. Hes,

OF every child that's born.

Which no man yet hath solved?

Since hrst the sphere revolyedl

And bring Man 10 his own.
