Thus would he muse from noontide--when the land Shimmered with heat, and walls and temples danced In the reeking air--till sunset, noting not The blazing globe roll down, nor evening glide, Purple and swift, across the softened fields; Nor the still coming of the stars, nor throb Of drum-skins in the busy town, nor screech Of owl and night-jar; wholly wrapt from self In keen unravelling of the threads of thought And steadfast pacing of lifes labyrinths. Thus would he sit till midnight hushed the world, Save where the beasts of darkness in the brake Crept and cried out, as fear and hatred cry, i As lust and avarice and anger creep, In the black jungles of mans ignorance. Then slept he for what space the fleet moon asks To swim a tenth part of her cloudy sea; But rose ere the False-dawn, and stood again Wistful on some dark platform of his hill, Watching the sleeping earth with ardent eyes j And thoughts embracing all its living things; While oer the waving fields that murmur moved Which is the kiss of Morn waking the lands, And in the east that miracle of Day Gathered and grew.

Then our Lord, After the manner of a Rishi, hailed The rising orb, and went--ablutions made--Down by the winding pa. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
