236. oldal - For mankind are one in spirit, and an instinct bears along, Round the earth's electric circle, the swift flash of right or wrong ; Whether conscious or unconscious, yet Humanity's vast frame Through its ocean.sundered fibres feels the gush of joy or shame ; — In the gain or loss of one race all the rest have equal claim.
