Silence
ri''hcre voices vanish into drcam, J have discovered, from the pride Of temporal trophydoms, this theme, That silence is the ultimate guide. Allow me now much musing-space To shape by secrecies alone: Allow me life apart, whose heart Translates instinctive tragi-lonc. How solitude can hear! 0 see How stillness un reluctant stands Enharnioniscd with cloud and tree . . . 0 earth and heaven not made with hands! —Siegfreu Sassoon in “The Spectator” (London).
