Matthew Arnold Quotes

Only
but This Is Rare
When A Beloved Hand Is Laid In Ours,
When, Jaded With The Rush And Glare
Of The Interminable Hours,
Our Eyes Can In Another's Eyes Read Clear,
When Our World-deafen'd Ear
Is By The Tones Of A Loved Voice Caress'd
A Bolt Is Shot Back Somewhere In Our Breast,
And A Lost Pulse Of Feeling Stirs Again.
The Eye Sinks Inward, And The Heart Lies Plain,
And What We Mean, We Say, And What We Would, We Know.
A Man Becomes Aware Of His Life's Flow,
And Hears Its Winding Murmur; And He Sees
The Meadows Where It Glides, The Sun, The Breeze.
