ODE TO HEAVEN.


CHORUS OF SPIRITS.

FIRST SPIRIT.

Palace-roof of cloudless nights!
Paradise of golden lights!
 Deep, immeasurable, vast,
Which art now, and which wert then!
 Of the present and the past,
Of the eternal where and when,
 Presence-chamber, temple, home,
 Ever-canopying dome,
 Of acts and ages yet to come!
