"Possessions vanish, and opinions change,
And passions hold a fluctuating seat;
But, by the storms of circumstance unshaken,
And subject neither to eclipse nor wane,
Duty exists; immutably survive,
For our support, the measures and the forms
Which a divine Intelligence supplies,
Whose kingdom is where time and space are
not."
Poems
