Samuel Taylor Coleridge Quote

The intelligible forms of ancient poets,
The fair humanities of old religion,
The power, the beauty, and the majesty
That had their haunts in dale or piny mountain,
Or forest by slow stream, or pebbly spring,
Or chasms and watery depths,—all these have vanished;
They live no longer in the faith of reason.


Wallenstein, part i. Act ii, scene 4 (translated from Schiller.) - Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919)
