Reminiscence + 

Who truth pursues, who from false ways + 

His heedful steps would keep, + 

By inward light must search within + 

In meditation deep; + 

All outward bent he must repress + 

His soul’s true treasure to possess. + 

Then all that error’s mists obscured + 

Shall shine more clear than light, + 

This fleshly frame’s oblivious weight + 

Hath quenched not reason quite; + 

The germs of truth still lie within, + 

Whence we by learning all may win. + 

Else how could ye the answer due + 

Untaught to questions give, + 

Were’t not that deep within the soul + 

Truth’s secret sparks do live? + 

If Plato’s teaching erreth not, + 

We learn but that we have forgot. + 
