The steel-spik’d spear
More quotes by Matthew Arnold
Nature, with equal mind,
Sees all her sons at play
Sees man control the wind,
The wind sweep man away.
And that sweet city with her dreaming spires,
She needs not June for beauty’s heightening.
Peace, peace is what I seek, and public calm,
Endless extinction of unhappy hates.
