And tremblingly partook
Nor then perhaps reported?
But have I not mistook
Each one of us has tasted
With ecstasies of stealth
The very food debated
To our specific strength -

A word that breathes distinctly
Has not the power to die
Cohesive as the Spirit
It may expire of He -

"Made Flesh and dwelt among us
Could condescension be
Like this consent of Language
This loved Philology
