Thus swift and steadfast, thus intent and strong;

The better for the s九九藏书weetness of our song.

Far more than of her flax; and yet the reel

To the dear Christian Church--that we藏书网 may do

Is full, and artfully her fingers feel

The woman singeth at her spinning-wheel

While thus, apart from toil, our souls pursue

She thinketh of her song, upon the whole,

Som９9lｉb•ｎeｔe high calm spheric tune, and prove our work

The lines--too subtly twisted to unroll--

With quick adjustment, provident co９9lｉｂ•ｎetntrol,

Out to a perfect thread. I hence appeal

A pleasant chant, ballad or barcarole;

Our Fathers business in these temples mirk,
