Classic Poem

Exalted Mind! whose Character doth bear
 The first Idea of Perfection, whence
Adam 's came, and stands so, how canst appear
In words? that only tell what here-
Tofore hath been; thou need'st as deep a sence
As prophecy, since there's no difference
 In telling what thou art, and what shall be:
Then pardon me that Rapture do profess,
 At thy outside, that want, for what I see,
Description, if here amaz'd I cesse
 Thus———
Yet grant one Question, and no more, crav'd under
 Thy gracious leave, How, if thou would'st express
Thy self to us, thou should'st be still a wonder?
