But 'tis not here it is not here Such thoughts should shake my soul; nor now Where glory seals the hero's bier, Or binds his brow. The sword, the banner, and the field, Glory and Greece around us see; The Spartan borne upon his shield Was not more free. Awake! not Greece she is awake Awake my spirit! think through whom My life-blood tastes its parent lake, And then strike home!

If even so he saw cases, such as a child tortured by agonizing pain, where there seemed to be no personal educative motive that could account for it, no sense of punishment which could be meant to improve the sufferer, he would fall back on the thought that each man is not isolated or solitary, but that there is some essential unity that binds humanity together, and that suffering at one point must, in some mysterious way that he cannot understand, mean amelioration at another.
