« All quotes from this author
 

He touched his harp, and nations heard, entranced,
As some vast river of unfailing source,
Rapid, exhaustless, deep, his numbers flowed
And opened new fountains in the human heart.
--
Book iv, line 684.

Yet those vast Numbers made 'em thrive;
Millions endeavouring to supply
Each other's Lust and Vanity.

Their source in the far-hidden heart of the mountains:
Whence then have descended the Wisdom and Love
That in man leap to light in intelligent fountains?
