[BNP/E3, 78A – 6^r]

THE GIANT'S REPLY.

I met a giant upon my way;

     He looked more wise than Nature.

“Tell me some truth”, my tongue did betray

     My soul so that more than creature.

- – “There is but one”, in an old voice strange

     He cried: “things are more, I say,

Than Time, in which they seem to change

And than Space, that seems more than they.
