Without telescopes, our understanding of the universe would be limited to what we can observe with the naked eye. We would have a smaller understanding of the vastness of the cosmos, the nature of celestial bodies, and our place in the universe. Science and astronomy would be severely hindered without the ability to observe distant objects and phenomena.
Roman Catholic AnswerThe secret that Mother concealed from everyone except her confessors and her spiritual directors was that she no longer felt the presence of God. This is a very common occurrence with most of the saints. God withdraws His consolations when people are strong enough so that they can earn more merit. Secular answerIf she had secrets then they were secret. No one would know about them otherwise they would not be secret.

"Fear no more the heat o' the sun" does not express Shakespeare's attitude. It expresses the attitude of Arviragus and Guiderius, two characters in the play Cymbeline. Arviragus and Guiderius are in the process of burying and mourning the death of their new young friend Fidele. (Fidele is in fact Imogen in disguise) They address this song to him/her with the consolations that in death there is nothing to fear as there is in life, and that everybody dies sooner or later. Of course, they are the ones who need consoling and they take consolation from it. It's a song which Shakespeare specifically wrote for this play. It is not a poem.
