Nor could it ever have been old.

Our shopman’s test of age and worth,
Was elemental when he died,
As he was ancient at his birth:”

I know the far-sent message of the years,
I feel the coming glory of the Light.”

Albeit he hand never seen one;
He would have sinned incessantly
Could he have been one.”
