Religion
XXVIII
From The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume 4
Religion
Each Christian nation shall take upon her
The law of the Christian man in vast:
The crown of the getter shall fall to the donor,
And last shall be first while first shall be last,
And to love best shall still be, to reign unsurpassed.
