Doubt and other things, verse and illustrations . [74] Digitized by Microsoft®. y**^Sy r* « In Dogmatists we never findThose tangled workings of the mind;There all is crisp and well such let us resign the straighten out the string again,Untie the knots and make all plain. With them assertion—flat or round—Has ever steadfast held its ground,Until by sheer persistencyA heaven-sent message all men Doubt unconquered holding outFrom time to time will have its flout. [75] Digitized by Microsoft® Truth See how the wily Doubter triesTo prove the world is full of Lies,Ignoring the overwhelming proofThat it is also full of Truth. So really we need not despair. If things look dark, theyll soon be fair. Nor yet on pessimism sup For Truth, though slow, is creeping up.
