The Unseen Infinite

The Unseen Infinite

Arisen to voiceless unattainable peaks
    I meet no end, for all is boundless He,
An absolute joy the wide-winged spirit seeks,
    A Might, a Presence, an Eternity.

In the inconscient dreadful dumb Abyss
    Are heard the heart-beats of the Infinite.
The insensible midnight veils His trance of bliss,
    A fathomless sealed astonishment of Light.

In His ray that dazzles our vision everywhere,
    Our half-closed eyes seek fragments of the One:
Only the eyes of Immortality dare
    To look unblinded on that living Sun.

Yet are our souls the Immortal's selves within,
Comrades and powers and children of the Unseen.
