Innocence And Beauty Beauty Is Truth

the human sense it does not age, it does not die,
and it is alien to all such concepts. In the
speakers meditation, this creates an intriguing
paradox for the human figures carved into the side
of the urn: they are free from time, but they are

sweats frost, And this ancient watery scar retains
The motionless tears of men with troubled spirits.

The Apostle who betrayed his Divine Master. The

surname Iscariot [Heb. a man of Kerioth or
Kerioth, which is a city of Judah (cf. Joshua 15:
25) ]. There can be no doubt that this is the
