Our faces bear the marks of the way we have lived – a point made well by Matt Anderson in Earthen Vessels, and which even Wordsworth knew. Something worth keeping in mind as we live: even our faces will show (or not) our love of God and man.
But we are often pressed by heavy laws, And often, glad no more, We wear a face of joy, because We have been glad of yore
—”The Fountain: A Conversation,” William Wordsworth, Selected Poems
