high;

fragments by narrow domestic walls,
4. Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Rabindran 5. Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards
ath Tagore perfection;
6. Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
into the dreary desert sand of dead habit,
7. Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-
widening thought and action
