Religion
LXVII
From The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume 2
Religion
There, I maddened! her words stung me. Life swept through me into
fever,
And my soul sprang up astonished, sprang full-statured in an hour.
Know you what it is when anguish, with apocalyptic NEVER,
To a Pythian height dilates you, and despair sublimes to power?
