THERE is one Mind one omnipresent Mind | B |
Omnific His most holy name is Love | C |
Truth of subliming import with the which | D |
Who feeds and saturates his constant soul | E |
He from his small particular orbit flies | F |
With blest outstarting From himself he flies | F |
Stands in the sun and with no partial gaze | G |
Views all creation and he loves it all | H |
And blesses it and calls it very good | I |
This is indeed to dwell with the Most High | A |
Cherubs and rapture trembling Seraphim | J |
Can press no nearer to the Almighty s throne | K |
But that we roam unconscious or with hearts | L |
Unfeeling of our universal Sire | M |
And that in His vast family no Cain | N |
Injures uninjured in her best aimed blow | O |
Victorious Murder a blind Suicide | P |
Haply for this some younger Angel now | Q |
Looks down on Human Nature and behold | R |
A sea of blood bestrewed with wrecks where mad | S |
Embattling Interests on each other rush | T |
With unhelmed rage | U |
Tis the sublime of man | V |
Our noontide Majesty to know ourselves | W |
Parts and proportions of one wondrous whole | E |
This fraternizes man this constitutes | X |
Our charities and bearings But tis God | Y |
Diffused through all that doth make all one whole | E |
This the worst superstition him except | Z |
Aught to desire Supreme Reality | A2 |
The plenitude and permanence of bliss | B2 |

Toy bewitched | C2 |
Made blind by lusts disherited of soul | E |
No common centre Man no common sire | M |
Knoweth A sordid solitary thing | D2 |
Mid countless brethren with a lonely heart | E2 |
Through courts and cities the smooth savage roams | F2 |
Feeling himself his own low self the whole | E |
When he by sacred sympathy might make | G2 |
The whole one Self Self that no alien knows | H2 |
Self far diffused as Fancy s wing can travel | I2 |
Self spreading still Oblivious of its own | K |
Yet all of all possessing This is Faith | J2 |
This the Messiah s destined victory | A2 |
