* Nay , dare I say , In every pore of this fast-fading frame Tfelt , I knew what God is , what we are , What life ia—how God tastes an infinite jay In infinite ways—bne everlasting bliss . From whom all heing emanates , all power Proceeds ; in whom is life for evermore , Yet whom existence in its lowest form
Includes ; where dwells enjoyment there is He \ Vith still a flying point of bliss remote—A happiness in store afar—a sphere Of distant glory in full view ; thus climbs Pleasure its height for ever and fpr ever ! The centre-fire heaVes underneath the earth .
And the earth changes like a human face : ; * The molten ore bursts up among the rocks—Winds into the stone s heart—outbranchea bright , In hidden mihes ^—spots barren river-bed $ -r—Crumbles into fine sand where sunbeams bask—God joys therein ! The wroth sea * s waves are edged With foam , white as the bitten lip of { late ,
\ V \ ien in the solitary waste strange groups Ofyoung volcanoes come up , cyclops-like , Staring together with their eyes on flame : Gixl tastes a pleasure in their uncouth pride !
