Part One: Life XXXVIII THROUGH the straight pass of suffering The martyrs even trod, Their feet upon temptation, Their faces upon God.    A stately, shriven company;         5 Convulsion playing round, Harmless as streaks of meteor Upon a plant’s bound.    Their faith the everlasting troth; Their expectation fair;         10 The needle to the north degree Wades so, through polar air.
