Eva Gore-Booth (18701926)355. Harvest
T
Sower and reaper or deeds dreamed and done,
Yet when a man reaches the Ivory Gate
Labour and life and seed and corn are one.
Because thou art the thinker and the thought,
Because thou art the helper and the need,
And the cold doubt that brings all things to nought.
The world’s dear open secret shalt thou find,
From the One Beauty there is no escape
Nor from the sunshine of the Eternal mind.
Follows this wisdom to its secret goal.
He knows all deeds and dreams exist in him,
And all men’s God in every human soul.
