LII
From The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume 2
Relationships
"Why, what is this patient entrance into nature's deep resources
But the child's most gradual learning to walk upright without bane?
When we drive out, from the cloud of steam, majestical white horses,
Are we greater than the first men who led black ones by the mane?
