from Simone Weil: Thinking Poetically (Suny Series) , Joan Darga |
Ultimate Beauty (Psalm 27:4)
1 day ago
But Man, that offspring of corrupting Clay,
Subject to Err, and Subject to Decay:
In Hopes, Desires, Will, Power, a numerous Train,
Uncertain, Fickle, Impotent and Vain:
Must tire the Heav'nly Muse with endless Prayer,
And call the smiling Angels to his care.
