| 356. Form |
| By Eva Gore-Booth |
| |
| THE BURIED statue through the marble gleams, | |
| Praying for freedom, an unwilling guest, | |
| Yet flooding with the light of her strange dreams | |
| The hard stone folded round her uncarved breast. | |
| |
| Founded in granite, wrapped in serpentine, | 5 |
| Light of all life and heart of every storm, | |
| Doth the uncarven image, the Divine, | |
| Deep in the heart of each man, wait for form. | |
