All things are Hers Concealed or manifestA
Found or unfound Her Spirit lives in eachB
Dumb till the Master Soul its secret guessedA
And gave its silence speechB
All things are Hers She is the Crystal QueenC
Of all men s vision and the moving breathD
Which through the greyness of the sordid sceneC
Gloweth and quickenethD
-
She is the flower maid of the dreaming noonE
The goddess of the temple of the nightF
Where the berg turrets gleam beneath the moonE
She builds Her throne of whiteF
-
She knows the Battle Hymn of mighty warsG
When wind and ocean thunder on the strandH
She knows the song the lonely river barsI
Sing to the listening landH
-
Armoured and helmeted and spurred for fightF
She fires men s hearts to right the bitter wrongJ
Yet sits She weaving of a summer nightF
Flowers of a bridal songJ
-
She gives the temper that has made men greatK
And fashioned heroes out of common clayL
And welded firm into a mighty StateK
The tribes of yesterdayL
-
Youth s radiant vision and the dreamy dawnM
Of the soft lovelight in a maiden s eyesN
And holiest joys of motherhood are drawnM
By Her from ParadiseO
-
She knows the Wheel Song of the Stars that runP
Their glittering courses through the blue abyssQ
Ere the round earth fell flaming from the sunP
Her spirit was and isR
-
She is the Phoeix ever making trueS
The dim tradition of the misty mornT
The crucible of science gives anewS
Her fairy form re bornT
-
All things are Hers but not with equal wordU
Dowers She the pilgrims of the sacred shrineV
Only the Great Interpreters have heardU
Her melodies divineV
-
All things are Hers and so to Her I bringW
Songs of the dreams that haunt me on my wayL
I who scarce hear the rustle of Her wingW
Borne on the wind awayL
