Sruutt It exists; a uital spark ol lile burning intensely, A lioing lorm breatbing golden dragon-fire, Throbbing with unbelieuable desire To eaade the ineoitable closeness ol imntortalTirne. Immane from fear; boldly struggling on, Courage uithout reasoltr, yet so strong And pure and free, Courage that uill alutays be To us, aoid of meaning-4 mystery Intricate speech of the uumbling earth! Wgaoe your hantble patb through your dim sbort hours Until the ladine copper-uimson llame inwardly touers, Grows faint, llickers and dies, Then gently unlold and spread your uystal rainbou win gs-shirnmerin g And lly past this muel uorld ol bitterness and hate Drawn on silently by tbe cold su.,ift hand ol late To a darkness, ouerllowing with cool, quiet peace.
