That men who find Christianity too hard of belief should come to believe in Paganism, sounds, I know, like an absurdity. But nothing is so incalculable as the credulity of incredulity.

An Atheist is a man who believes himself an accident.

The innocent moon, that nothing does but shine,
Moves all the labouring surges of the world.

Anchorite, who didst dwell
With all the world for cell!

Whose form is as a grove
Hushed with the cooing of an unseen dove.

Thou canst not stir a flower
Without troubling of a star.

The Mistress of Vision (1913)
