As when the dove returning bore the mark Of earth restored to the long labouring ark; The relics of mankind, secure at rest, Oped every window to receive the guest, And the fair bearer of the message bless'd.

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "As when the dove returning bore the mark Of earth restored to the long labouring ark; The relics of mankind, secure at rest, Oped every window to receive the guest, And the fair bearer of the message bless'd." in the context of "John Dryden, To Her Grace of Ormond, line 70." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
