SEARCH FOR BEAUTY
To see life steadily and see it whole Was once your earnest counsel. It was odd, I've sometimes thought; such purview is the solo Prerogative of madman or of God. We'vo soon lifo most unsteadily; in part; A thousand jigsaws, pattorn still unguessed; The colours not divided black and white But, blessed with infinity of art— Such casuistry, paradox and jest— And beauty, that wo thought would bo so rare, Why, beauty everywhere! —Christopher Morley
