    All things journey: sun and moon,
    Morning, noon, and afternoon,
    Night and all her stars;
    'Twixt the east and western bars
    Round they journey,
    Come and go!
    We go with them!

But life upon the larger scale, the higher,
When, graduating up in a spiral line
Of still expanding and ascending gyres,
It pushed toward the intense significance
Of all things, hungry for the Infinite?
Art's life--and where we live, we suffer and toil.
