Winged Release

BRING down from heaven the luminous spark;

In ruthless lightning-
res burn

The impenetrable abysms dark;

Then open like a ower and turn

Each atom to the fathomless

In
nities of an unknown Sun;

Fill like a cup thy consciousness

Emptied of the spirits oblivion.

Cast from thee the
rm gyves of Time;

Reveal the souls intensities,

The lofty vision, the sublime

Heights, the ineffable stillnesses.

In the immutable depths of God

Seek the elusive Mystery;

Jewelled with his delight and shod

With his unborn felicity,

The limit and the transient bond

Fallen like a shattered pot,

Find Winged release in the Beyond

A shadowless ight of a gold Thought.
