Poet at Heart

Let us therefor love poetry and respect the poets.

One is noble (in the sense of the “nobility of the heart”) in so far as one is a poet at heart.  Let us not smother the nobility within us by an overestimation of practical aims or by a preoccupation with our salvation, but on the contrary let us ennoble our work and our religion by bringing in the breath of poetic inspiration.
