Irreconcileable, to our grand Foe,”

It is not sufficient to catch mans mind, you must also catch the imaginative faculties of his mind.”

Thy Souls immensity;
Thou best Philosopher, who yet dost keep
Thy heritage, thou Eye among the blind,
That, deaf and silent, readst the eternal deep,
Haunted for ever by the eternal mind,”
