Explore "Beauty" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
_The search for beauty is the search for God_ / _Who is All Beauty_. _He who seeks shall find_. / _And all along the paths my feet have trod_, / _I have sought hungrily with heart and mind_, / _And open eyes for beauty_, _everywhere_. / _Lo_! _I have found the world is very fair_. / _The search for beauty is the search for God_.
Beauty was first revealed to me by stars, / Before I saw it in my mother's eyes, / Or, seeing, sensed it beauty, I was stirred / To awe and wonder by those orbs of light / All palpitant against empurpled skies. / They spoke a language to my childish heart / Of mystery and splendour, and of space, / Friendly with gracious, unseen presences. / Beauty was first revealed to me by stars.
