ASPECTS OF HUMANITr. "What conscious energy betrayed, What grace, what dignity, As yon portentous hordes parade Their lofty destiny! In every aspect, how portrayed A mental majesty! 80 Alike, when, roused from their base bed, Fresh visions loom on high, Or after-apparitions wed The mysteries of the sky; Alike, when quietly apart They seem to rest unchanged, Alike, when numbers onward starts In stately sequence ranged, Till, gathering in a common goal They carry out the drift 90 Of some transcendent aim, or dole To Earth their welcome gift; Alike, when such synthetic view Some skill disintegrates, As though at random, and each clue From all discriminates; Alike, where'er in the detail Of duty's constant course, Some faculty with beauty's veil, Half-hiding, decks their force, 1oo As murky masses ride sublime, On urgent purpose bent, Or filmy vapors lightly climb, Slightly subservient; Alike in every movement wrought, In every phantom's guise, The type-set tasks and traits of Thought Methinks I recognize.
