I MET a SeerA
Passing the hues and objects of the worldB
The fields of art and learning pleasure senseC
To glean Eid lonsD
-
Put in thy chants said heE
No more the puzzling hour nor day nor segments parts put inF
Put first before the rest as light for all and entrance song ofG
allH
That of Eid lonsD
-
Ever the dim beginningI
Ever the growth the rounding of the circleJ
Ever the summit and the merge at last to surely start againK
Eid lons Eid lonsD
-
Ever the mutableJ
Ever materials changing crumbling re coheringI
Ever the ateliers the factories divineL
Issuing Eid lonsD
-
Lo I or youM
Or woman man or State known or unknownN
We seeming solid wealth strength beauty buildO
But really build Eid lonsD
-
The ostent evanescentP
The substance of an artist's mood or savan's studies longI
Or warrior's martyr's hero's toilsQ
To fashion his Eid lonR
-
Of every human lifeS
The units gather'd posted not a thought emotion deed left outT
The whole or large or small summ'd added upU
In its Eid lonR
-
The old old urgeV
Based on the ancient pinnacles lo newer higher pinnaclesQ
From Science and the Modern still impell'dW
The old old urge Eid lonsQ
-
The present now and hereA
America's busy teeming intricate whirlX
Of aggregate and segregate for only thence releasingI
To day's Eid lonsQ
-
These with the pastY
Of vanish'd lands of all the reigns of kings across the seaQ
Old conquerors old campaigns old sailors' voyagesQ
Joining Eid lonsQ
-
Densities growth fa adesQ
Strata of mountains soils rocks giant treesQ
Far born far dying living long to leaveZ
Eid lons everlastingI
-
Exalt rapt extaticI
The visible but their womb of birthA2
Of orbic tendencies to shape and shape and shapeB2
The mighty Earth Eid lonR
-
All space all timeC2
The stars the terrible perturbations of the sunsQ
Swelling collapsing ending serving their longer shorter useQ
Fill'd with Eid lons onlyQ
-
The noiseless myriadsQ
The infinite oceans where the rivers emptyQ
The separate countless free identities like eyesightD2
The true realities Eid lonsQ
-
Not this the WorldB
Nor these the Universes they the UniversesQ
Purport and end ever the permanent life of lifeS
Eid lons Eid lonsQ
-
Beyond thy lectures learn'd professorE2
Beyond thy telescope or spectroscope observer keen beyond allH
mathematicsQ
Beyond the doctor's surgery anatomy beyond the chemist with hisQ
chemistryQ
The entities of entities Eid lonsQ
-
Unfix'd yet fix'dF2
Ever shall be ever have been and areG2
Sweeping the present to the infinite futureE2
Eid lons Eid lons Eid lonsQ
-
The prophet and the bardH2
Shall yet maintain themselves in higher stages yetI2
Shall mediate to the Modern to Democracy interpret yet to themJ2
God and Eid lonsQ
-
And thee My SoulK2
Joys ceaseless exercises exaltationsQ
Thy yearning amply fed at last prepared to meetL2
Thy mates Eid lonsQ
-
Thy Body permanentP
The Body lurking there within thy BodyQ
The only purport of the Form thou art the real I myselfM2
An image an Eid lonR
-
Thy very songs not in thy songsQ
No special strains to sing none for itselfM2
But from the whole resulting rising at last and floatingI
A round full orb'd Eid lonR
