Let me tell out my tale to its ending-my voice to my heart Which can scarce dare believe in what marvels last night I took part, As this morning I gather the fragments, alone with my sheep, And still fear lest the terrible glory Evanish like sleep!
"Browning and the Dramatic Monologue"
S. S. Curry
To think its thoughts and breathe its desires, even for a few moments, is to have the horizon of the senses open, the heavy atmosphere of earth clear, the illusions of the world Evanish, the fever of business cool and calm, the tempting appetites and passions slink down shamed into their kennels.
"The Right and Wrong Uses of the Bible"
R. Heber Newton
Those golden palaces, those gorgeous halls, With furniture superfluously fair; Those stately courts, those sky-encountering walls, Evanish all like vapours in the air.
"Montaigne and Shakspere"
John M. Robertson
