Little. At times, as if from sleep,<br>We waken to this yearning passionate mood,<br>And tremble at our spiritual solitude.<br>II<br>Nay, never once to feel we are alone,<br>While the great human heart around us lies:<br>To make the smile on other lips our own,<br>To live upon the light in others' eyes:<br>To breathe without a doubt the limped air<br>Of that most perfect love that knows no pain:<br>To say–I love you–only, and not care<br>Whether the love come back to us again:<br>Divinest self-forgetfulness, at first<br>A task, and then a tonic, then a need;<br>To greet with open hands the best and worst,<br>And only for another's wound to bleed:<br>This is to see the beauty that God meant,<br>Wrapped round with life, ineffably content.<br>III<br>There is a beauty at the goal of life,<br>A beauty growing since the world began,<br>Through every age and race, through lapse and strife<br>Till the great human soul complete her span.<br>Beneath the waves of storm that lash and burn,<br>The currents of blind passion that appall,<br>To listen and keep watch till we discern<br>The tide of sovereign truth that guides it all;<br>So to address our spirits to the height,<br>And so attune them to the valiant whole,<br>That the great light be clearer for our light,<br>And the great soul the stronger for our soul:<br>To have done this is to have lived, though fame<br>Remember us with no familiar name.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Archibald+Lampman">Archibald Lampman</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=348184" data-title="The Largest Life de Archibald Lampman" data-description="I I lie upon my bed and hear and see.
