Deliberation.: Poem by Robert Crawford

  1. Home
  2. Robert Crawford
  3. Poems

Within the mist of argument men lose
Ofttimes the thread of reason, and the fume
Of thought, until its urgency subsides,
So cloudeth counsel, that on a debate
Time should avail for meditation ere
The matter comes to judgment.
