George William Russell - Oversoul lyrics

THE EAST was crowned with snow-cold bloom And hung with veils of pearly fleece: They died away into the gloom, Vistas of peace—and deeper peace. And earth and air and wave and fire In awe and breathless silence stood; For One who pa**ed into their choir Linked them in mystic brotherhood. Twilight of amethyst, amid Thy few strange stars that lit the heights, Where was the secret spirit hid? Where was Thy place, O Light of Lights? The flame of Beauty far in space— Where rose the fire: in Thee? in Me? Which bowed the elemental race To adoration silently?
