All service is the same with God,
With God, whose puppets, best and worst,
Are we: there is no last nor first.
Pippa Passes (1841)
Some unsuspected isle in the far seas,—
Some unsuspected isle in far-off seas.
Pippa Passes (1841)
The year's at the spring,
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearl'd;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in His heaven—
All's right with the world!
Pippa Passes (1841)
All service ranks the same with God,—
With God, whose puppets, best and worst,
Are we: there is no last nor first.
Pippa Passes (1841)
In the morning of the world,
When earth was nigher heaven than now.
Pippa Passes (1841)
God's in His Heaven —
All's right with the world!
Pippa Passes (1841)
Say not "a small event!" Why "small"?
Costs it more pain that this ye call
A "great event" should come to pass
From that? Untwine me from the mass
Of deeds which make up life, one deed
Power shall fall short in or exceed!
Pippa Passes (1841)
