LAWRENCE, D. H.

 

GOD

Where sanity is

There God is.

And the sane can still recognise sanity

So they can still recognise God.

(De Sola Pinto,  516)

 

ABSOLUTE REVERENCE

I feel absolute reverence to nobody and to nothing human

Neither to persons nor things nor ideas, ideals nor religion

Nor institutions,

To those things I feel only respect, and a tinge of reverence

When I see the fluttering of pure life in them.

 

But to something unseen, unknown, creative

From which I feel I am a derivative

I feel absolute reverence. Say no more!

(Ibid, 622)
