A QUESTION by ISAAC ROSENBERG

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHAT IF YOU SHUT YOUR EYES AND LOOK
Last Line: EVEN WHAT THE SOUL HAS PICTURED THERE?
Subject(s): IMAGINAION;
What if you shut your eyes and look,
Yea, look with all the spirit's eyes,
While mystic unrevealed skies
Unfold like pages of a book

Wherein new scenes of wonder rare
Are imaged, till the sense deceives
Itself, and what it sees believes --
Even what the soul has pictured there?
