Must each await alone at his own height
Another darkness or another light;”

“Passion is here a soilure of the wits,
We’re told, and Love a cross for them to bear;
Joy shivers in the corner where she knits
And Conscience always has the rocking-chair,
Cheerful as when she tortured into fits
The first cat that was ever killed by Care.”

—C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)
“Friendless and faint, with martyred steps and slow,
Faint for the flesh, but for the spirit free,”
