There were summit-glories inconceivable, Autonomies of Wisdom's still self-rule And high dependencies of her virgin sun, Illumined theocracies of the seeing soul Throned in the power of the Transcendent's ray.

Only to be was a supreme delight, Life was a happy laughter of the soul And Joy was king with Love for minister.

On a spiritual and mysterious peak Only a miracle's high transfiguring line Divided life from the formless Infinite And sheltered Time against eternity.

Calm heavens of imperishable Light, Illumined continents of violet peace, Oceans and rivers of the mirth of God And griefless countries under purple suns.
