A description of the experience
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow – from The Poems of Longfellow [printed about 1875]
from The Building of the Ship
Ah, how skilful grows the hand
That obeyeth Love's command
It is the heart, and not the brain
That to the highest doth attain
And he who followeth Love's behest
Far excelleth all the rest.
