Of ownership-as if one fit to own things could not at pleasure enter
upon all, and incorporate them into himself or herself;
Of vista-suppose some sight in arriere through the formative chaos,
presuming the growth, fulness, life, now attain’d on the journey,
(But I see the road continued, and the journey ever continued;)
Of what was once lacking on earth, and in due time has become
supplied-and of what will yet be supplied,
Because all I see and know I believe to have its main purport in
what will yet be supplied.
