Before those poets Milton, Keats and Blake,
\nWill knew the web of life\u2019s a mingled twine;
\nThat good and evil grow, for growing\u2019s sake,
\nTogether, as indeed do joy and pine;
\nThat Mother Nature loves to make men whole
\nThrough her collaborator Mistress Art,
\nWhose dialectic briefly heals the soul
\nBy synthesizing polar mind and heart.
\nHe knew, what\u2019s more, he\u2019d be a greater bard

\nIt forced him outward details to regard,
\nAnd life external equally to probe.
\n++<\/span>Thus art and stage, combined, did him sustain
\n++<\/span>When fearful chaos came to him again.<\/p>\n
