Even in earth-stuff, and their intense delight
Poured a supernal beauty on men’s lives.

Then by a touch, a presence or a voice
The world is turned into a temple ground
And all discloses the unknown Beloved.

Earth felt the Imperishable’s passage close:
The waking ear of Nature heard her steps
And wideness turned to her its limitless eye,
And, scattered on sealed depths, her luminous smile
Kindled to fire the silence of the worlds.

Air was a vibrant link between earth and heaven;
The wide-winged hymn of a great priestly wind
Arose and failed upon the altar hills;
The high boughs prayed in a revealing sky.
