The unique personality which is the real life in me, I can not gain unless I search for the real life, the spiritual quality,
in others. I am myself spiritually dead unless I reach out to the fine quality dormant in others. For it is only with the god
enthroned in the innermost shrine of the other, that the god hidden in me, will consent to appear.

Death is a Dialogue between
The Spirit and the Dust.
"Dissolve" says Death—The Spirit "Sir
I have another Trust"—
Death doubts it—Argues from the Ground—
The Spirit turns away
Just laying off for evidence
An Overcoat of Clay.

from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is
there about us always.
