THE INFORMING SPIRIT

Ralph Waldo Emerson

There is no great and no small To the Soul that maketh all: And where it cometh, all things are; And it cometh everywhere.

I am owner of the sphere, Of the seven stars and the solar year, Of Caesar's hand, and Plato's brain, Of Lord Christ's heart, and Shakspeare's strain.
