The voice of the hidden waterfall/ And the children in the apple-tree/ Not known, because not looked for/ But heard, half-heard, in the stillness/ Between two waves of the sea./ Quick now, here, now, always —/ A condition of complete simplicity/ (Costing not less than everything)/ And all shall be well and/ All manner of thing shall be well/ When the tongues of flame are in-folded/ Into the crowned knot of fire/ And the fire and the rose are one. — T.S. ELIOT
