“Such souls,
Whose sudden visitations daze the world,
Vanish like lighting, but they leave behind
A voice that in the distance far away
Wakens the slumbering ages.”

Henry Taylor (1800–1886) English playwright and poet

Act I, sc. 7.
Philip van Artevelde (1834)
Variant: Such souls,
Whose sudden visitations daze the world,
Vanish like lighting, but they leave behind
A voice that in the distance far away
Wakens the slumbering ages.
