Dover Beach is one of my favorite things to read and I think it's about a world
without Faith and God to trust. With God everything is possible. Jan 4-28-09

The poem like Dover Beach leads me to think that something happened to embitter the poet. Therefore I feel I should read more about him.

'Twas August, and the fierce sun overhead
Smote on the squalid streets of Bethnal Green,
And the pale weaver, through his windows seen
In Spitalfields, looked thrice dispirited.
I met a preacher there I knew, and said:
"Ill and o'erworked, how fare you in this scene?" -
"Bravely!" said he; "for I of late have been
Much cheered with thoughts of Christ, the living bread."
O human soul! as long as thou canst so
