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. |
