Quest And Vision Essays PDF Download

Excerpt from Quest and Vision: Essays in Life and Literature Art And Truth. The weary years, the summer's gold, Man's feverish joy and pain, Pass like a dream, and all grows old: Tell me, what things remain? Two names alone, and Truth is one: A face inscrutable, With lips that neither laugh nor moan, Yet all things have to tell. And Art the other: at the gate Of her old Paradise, Whoe'er shall come, or soon or late, She opens to the wise. We fade and pass: we fret our days In barren love and strife; But happier he who only prays Beneath the Tree of Life.
