SONG.

Flower in the crannied wall,I pluck you out of the crannies;—Hold you here, root and all, in my hand,Little flower—but if I could understandWhat you are, root and all, and all in all,I should know what God and man is.

Flower in the crannied wall,

I pluck you out of the crannies;—

Hold you here, root and all, in my hand,

Little flower—but if I could understand

What you are, root and all, and all in all,

I should know what God and man is.

—Alfred, Lord Tennyson.

Dare to be true.... Nothing can need a lie;A fault, which needs it most, grows two thereby.

Dare to be true.... Nothing can need a lie;A fault, which needs it most, grows two thereby.

Dare to be true.... Nothing can need a lie;A fault, which needs it most, grows two thereby.

Dare to be true.... Nothing can need a lie;

A fault, which needs it most, grows two thereby.

—George Herbert.
