G.K. Chesterton Quotes

I Cannot Count The Pebbles In The Brook.
Well Hath He Spoken: "Swear Not By Thy Head.
Thou Knowest Not The Hairs," Though He, We Read,
writes That Wild Number In His Own Strange Book.
I Cannot Count The Sands Or Search The Seas,
death Cometh, And I Leave So Much Untrod.
Grant My Immortal Aureole, O My God,
and I Will Name The Leaves Upon The Trees,
In Heaven I Shall Stand On Gold And Glass,
still Brooding Earth's Arithmetic To Spell;
or See The Fading Of The Fires Of Hell
ere I Have Thanked My God For All The Grass.
