Oh yet we trust that somehow good
Will be the final goal of ill,
To pangs of nature, sins of will,
Defects of doubt, and taints of blood;
That nothing walks with aimless feet;
That not one life shall be destroy'd,

When God hath made the pile complete;
That not a worm is cloven in vain;
That not a moth with vain desire
Is shrivell'd in a fruitless fire,

To weave the mirror’s magic sights,
For often thro’ the silent nights

Came two young lovers lately wed;
“I am half-sick of shadows,” said
The Lady of Shalott.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
