Religion

Reconciliation

by Thomas Edward Brown 1830–1897

From Lyrical

Religion

There is a place where He hath split the hills;
No water fills
The gap —
A bow-shot wide
Side stands to side,
Indenture perfectly opposed,
The outlet closed
By seeming overlap —
So severed are our hearts, so rent our wills;
And yet the old correlatives remain —
Ah! brother, may we not be joined again?
