John Stuart Blackie Poems

All things are full of God. Thus spoke
Wise Thales in the days
When subtle Greece to thought awoke
And soared in lofty ways.
...

TRIMURTI, Trimurti,
Despise not the name;
Think and know
Before thou blame!
...

Spirit that shaped the formless chaos,
Breath that stirred the sluggish deep,
...

Praise ye the Lord!
Not in the temple of shapeliest mould,
Polished with marble and gleaming with gold,
Piled upon pillars of slenderest grace,
...

As I came wandering down Glen Spean,
Where the braes are green and grassy,
With my light step I overtook
A weary-footed lassie.
...
