| To find a symbol from the hand of art | B |
| That gave the full expression not a part | B |
| Of that ecstatic peace which follows all | A |

| Unknown the artist vaguely known his creed | C |
| But the bronze wonder of his work sufficed | D |
| To lift me to the heights his faith had trod | E |
| For one rich moment opulent indeed | C |
| I walked with Krishna Buddha and the Christ | D |
| And felt the full serenity of God | E |
