“I am quite sure that the whole work was completed in five minutes, and equally sure that it never received at my hands any correction. I have no natural gift of rhythm. All the other verses I have ever written are manufactured articles; this came like a dayspring from on high.”

I have no hope for that, as there hasn't been thinking for decades, and we are ruled by morons, and other morons keep voting for them.
