Excerpt from The Ave Maria, Vol. 75: A Catholic Family Magazine Devoted to the Honor of the Blessed Virgin; July-December, 1912
Bryant's view of human life, its purpose and tendencies, is given in his 1arlier poems, notably in The Ages. This is, in fact, his philosophy of history, and it is decidedly optimistic. \vliem we stand beside the grave of the good man that died in the morning of life, or of the youth snatched away as he budded into manhood, or of those that were n1ar and dear to us, we are tempted to despair, to imagine that our loss is a world - loss, that not only our own but the world's progress has been stayed.
