Pàgina 278 - Bodhi-tree 1 (thenceforward in all years Never to fade, and ever to be kept In homage of the world), beneath whose leaves It was ordained the Truth should come to Buddh : Which now the Master knew; wherefore he went With measured pace, steadfast, majestical, Unto the Tree of Wisdom. Oh, ye Worlds! Rejoice! our Lord wended unto the Tree!
Pàgina 279 - Of demon-armies clouding all the wind, With thunder, and with blinding lightning flung In jagged javelins of purple wrath From splitting skies ; sometimes with wiles and words Fair-sounding, 'mid hushed leaves and softened airs From shapes of witching beauty ; wanton songs, Whispers of love ; sometimes with royal allures Of proffered rule ; sometimes with mocking doubts. Making truth vain.
Pàgina 307 - But they are hanging in the dark ; and we strive in vain to tell what it is which these pictures represent to us of God. But Jesus has opened a window, and let in the light. He is himself that light. St John said of him, " He is the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world." Jesus said of himself,
