That ode is extinct, but will revive.

So also with "A Creed, &c.," which bears the imprint of Simpkin & Marshall, and the date 1870.

Its chief peculiarities are summed up in the concluding lines:-- "So then, in brief, my creed is truly this; Conscience is our chief seed of woe or bliss; God who made all things is to all things Love, Balancing wrongs below by rights above; Evil seemed needful that the good be shown, And Good was swift that Evil to atone; While creatures, link'd together, each with each, Of one great Whole in changeful sequence teach, Life-presence everywhere sublimely vast And endless for the future as the past." For I believe in some future life for the lower animals as well as for their unworthier lord; and in the immortality of all creation.

Some other poems and hymns also are in this pamphlet.
