“The Lord let the house of a brute to the soul of a man, And the man said, "Am I your debtor?" And the Lord--"Not yet: but make it as clean as you can, And then I will let you a better.” MenSaidSoulHouseLordHe ManEvolutionCleanBrutesDebtors Author:Alfred Lord Tennyson
“Behold great Whitman, whose licentious line Delights the rake, and warms the souls of swine; Whose fever'd fancy shuns the measur'd pace, And copies Ovid's filth without his grace. In his rough brain a genius might have grown, Had he not sought to play the brute alone; But void of shame, he let his wit run wild, And liv'd and wrote as Adam's bestial child.” ChildrenSoulPlayMightRunningLinesBrainGraceGeniusShameDelightWitFancyRoughCopiesPaceAdamVoidBrutesFeverFilthSwineRakes Book:The Conservative Source: The Conservative
