There are more things in Heaven and Earth, than we

Can dream of, or than nature understands;

We learn not through our poor philosophy

What hidden chords are touched by unseen hands.

The present hour repeats upon its strings

Echoes of some vague dream we have forgot;

Dim voices whisper half-remembered things,

And when we pause to listen,--answer not.

Forebodings come: we know not how, or whence,

Shadowing a nameless fear upon the soul,

And stir within our hearts a subtler sense,

Than light may read, or wisdom may control.

And who can tell what secret links of thought

Bind heart to heart? Unspoken things are heard,

As if within our deepest selves was brought

The soul, perhaps, of some unuttered word.

But, though a veil of shadow hangs between

That hidden life, and what we see and hear,

Let us revere the power of the Unseen,

And know a world of mystery is near.
