Open
the
doors
of
Infinity ; bring
forth
The
golden
cups and
pour
the
kindling
wine.
So
shall we
drink
and
see , with
hearts made wise,
Dead
rocks and metals
tense with whirling
life ;
Rivers
and
seas and meres
and
the
streaming
winds
Sure, ceremonial, move
to
the
pulse
of
change :
Yea , Spirit
shall
see how
from
the teeming
earth
Waving
trees
and
the beautiful
lives
of
flowers
Flicker
like
tongues
of
flame ;
Shall
see
how
man , the bright untameable
spirit ,
Leaps and
aspires and
burns
upward
for
ever
,
A
quivering
flame
,
beyond
the flaming
stars
.
