The Great Texts of the Bible: Romans (Completion) (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Great d104s of the Bible: Romans (Completion)

I think man's great capacity for pain Proves his immortal birthright. I am sure No merely human mind could bear the strain Of some tremendous sorrows we endure.

Art's most ingenious breastworks fail at length, Beat by the mighty billows of the sea; Only the God-formed shores possess the strength To stand before their onslaughts, and not flee.

The structure that we build with careful toil, The tempest lays in ruins in an hour; While some grand tree that Springs forth from the soil IS bended but not broken by its power.
