^HE Way, the Truth, the Life ! Ah ! would that they 
® Who follow Truth, pursued it by that way 
Which Truth itself hath ’stablished and made broad ! 
Christ is the Truth, and Christ alone the road. 
A little while we seek for Truth; and then 
We ask for knowledge, and we ask for fame, 
For mental beauty marked in Truth’s great name; 
An exercise for strength, a bait for wit, 
A "mark for boastful skill, unpriced when hit; 
For all but Truth. „ - .
