[BNP/E3, 78B – 36]

_________

A condensation of benevolence

Throwing upon an object of our sense

All the etherealness, divinely blind,

Of man’s deep love for {…} mankind

     To feel in the blood

The sacred youthfulness that {…} doth flood

{…} and field and meadow

Making all pleasure its most glorious shadow.
