Discovery meet, most sweet substantial,  A grim victoire in sober fierce,  Which knowing in its talent fines  To piercing use; the cup...
So long as men can live and live to see Restrainèd not in action's course or bent; So long as those still fall be-weeping misery In silent...
And those who live in darkness,Who stay the siege of light,Embrace the naked sepulcher And, passing, drop from sight. --
