The valiant Intellect went forth  To east and west and south and north, And found no trace of Him. We walked the world from sun to sun,  Logic and I, with little Faith,  But never came to Nazareth, Or found the Holy One. I sought in vain. And finally,  Back to the heart's small house I crept,  And fell upon my knees, and wept; And lo! -- He came to me!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Christina Rossetti, Poet, 1894 Am I a stone, and not a sheep,  That I can stand, 0 ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6963]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Christina Rossetti, Poet, 1894 Am I a stone, and not a sheep,  That I can stand, 0 Christ, beneath Thy cross,  To number drop by drop Thy Blood's slow loss,  And yet not weep?
