Religion
Dark, and Days
From Niagara, and Other Poems (1904)
Religion
The same old problems vex mankind;
In meager beams the light is given;
Nor may the race e’er hope to find
The rest for which each age has striven.
The same old problems vex mankind;
But to our fears this faith is given:—
Broods over all the Eternal Mind,
And night on earth is day in heaven.
