RENUNCIATION by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: NO MAN HATH GAIN'D SOUL-MASTERY, WITHOUT
Last Line: WIDENS LIFE'S WHOLE HORIZON TO HIS SIGHT.
Subject(s): LIFE; RELIGION; THEOLOGY;
NO man hath gain'd soul-mastery, without
Fierce self-renunciation—and the fight,
So hardly won, so perilous near to rout,
Widens Life's whole horizon to his sight.
