AD ASTRA: 156 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: TIS EASIER TO BELIEVE THAN DISBELIEVE!
Last Line: LIGHTS WITH THE LILY, REDDENS WITH THE ROSE.
Subject(s): GOD; RELIGION; SPRING; THEOLOGY;

'Tis easier to Believe than Disbelieve!
Tho' mortal mind may never apprehend
Infinite God, nor fixedly conceive
A Time without beginning, without end,
Nor where the stars in their bright courses wend.
With every Spring a deeper reverence grows,
Lights with the lily, reddens with the rose.
