Read it through once

“And when man questioned, ‘What if there be love {500} Behind the will and might, as real as they?’-- He needed satisfaction God could give, And did give, as ye have the written word: But when, beholding that love everywhere, He reasons, ‘Since such love is everywhere, {505} And since ourselves can love and would be loved, We ourselves make the love, and Christ was not’,-- How shall ye help this man who knows himself, That he must love and would be loved again, Yet, owning his own love that proveth Christ, {510} Rejecteth Christ through very need of Him? The lamp o’erswims with oil, the stomach flags Loaded with nurture, and that man’s soul dies.
