So
earth
and
God, man's
parents
twain ,
Of
diverse
nature
intertwined ,
In
flesh
of man, and
in man 's brain
Symbol of mystic
wedlock
find .
Earth
for
the service
of
her
King
Does
on
a
radiant purity
,
Deep
to
her
centre
passioning
Mother
and
nurse
of
man
to
be,
And all the
soul
of
God
is
great
With
transport unimaginable
,
He thrills
,
he
trembles
,
to
create
Man
that has mind
to
praise
him
well
.”

“
There
is
a
chaos throned
above
the throne
Law
is
the servant
of
no
destiny
:
Law
is
a
shadow
thrown
From
shapes
of
things
by
fires
of
Anarchy
.
Formless
are
the
fires
,
unconfined
,
Neither
obedient
to
their
own
desires
Nor
serving
other mind
.
They
are
and
are not
;
neither
live nor
die
;
Nor
quicken
,
nor
consume
truth
or
lie
:
All
things
reveal
them
,
nothing
can
illume
.”
So
spake
the
voice
on
a
night
,
