“For words, like Nature, half revealAnd half conceal the Soul within.”

“Words, like nature, half reveal and half conceal the soul within.”

“I sometimes find it half a sin,To put to words the grief i feel,For words like nature,half reveal,and half conceal the soul within,”

“I sometimes hold it half a sinTo put in words the grief I feel;For words, like Nature, half revealAnd half conceal the Soul within.But, for the unquiet heart and brain,A use in measured language lies;The sad mechanic exercise,Like dull narcotics, numbing pain.In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,Like coarsest clothes against the cold:But that large grief which these enfoldIs given in outline and no more.In Memoriam A.H.H. Section 5”

“I am half-sick of shadows,' said The Lady of Shalott.”

“There lives more faith in honest doubt, believe me, than in half the creeds.”

“In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,Like coarsest clothes against the cold”
