THE OPENED EYES

John ix. 37.

          "Where is a God?" doth weary Reason say--
               "I see but starlit skies."
          "Where is the sun?" So calleth at noonday
               The man with sightless eyes.
          Thou, little child, from thee God is not far;
               Look inwards, not above:
          Thou needest not to roam from star to star,
               For God is Love.
