Excerpt from The Disciple, and Other Poems
Some times a gentle sympathy With long-departed saint, Dawns, feebly radiant, over me Experience old and quaint, As of a church's holy night, With low-browed chapels No common sunshine dares Upon the sacred ground.
One glance at sunny fields of grain, One shout of child at play Discordant melodies again Drive all the good away.

George MacDonald (1824-1905), the Scottish Victorian novelist, began his adult life as a clergyman. After a short career in the pulpit he turned to writing, and with publication of his novels in the 1860s, he became widely known. He wrote some 50 books, including poetry, short stories, sermons, and essays, in addition to his novels.
