          And in the vacancies discerned
          With spiritual sense the fullness of life
          And the gates of Day stood wide。

          I am shaken with gladness
          My limbs tremble with joy
          My heart and the earth
          Tremble with happiness
          The ecstasy of life
          Is abroad in the world。

          Knowledge hath uncurtained heaven
          On the uttermost shores of darkness there is light
          Midnight hath sent forth a beam
          The blind that stumbled in darkness without light
          Behold a new day
          In the obscurity gleams the star of Thought
          Imagination hath a luminous eye
          And the mind hath a glorious vision。


III

          ;The man is blind。 What is life to him
          A closed book held up against a sightless face。
          Would that he could see
          Yon beauteous star察and know
          For one transcendent moment
          The palpitating joy of sight 

          All sight is of the soul。
          Behold it in the upward flight
          Of the unfettered spirit Hast thou seen
          Thought bloom in the blind child's face
          Hast thou seen his mind grow
          Like the running dawn察to grasp
          The vision of the Master
          It was the miracle of inward sight。

          In the realms of wonderment where I dwell
          I explore life with my hands
          I recognize察and am happy
          My fingers are ever athirst for the earth
          And drink up its wonders with delight
          Draw out earth's dear delights
          My feet are charged with the murmur
          The throb察of all things that grow。

          This is touch察this quivering
          This flame察this ether
          This glad rush of blood
          This daylight in my heart
          This glow of sympathy in my palms
          Thou blind察loving察all´prying touch
          Thou openest the book of life to me。

          The noiseless little noises of the earth
          e with softest rustle
          The shy察sweet feet of life
          The silky mutter of moth´wings
          Against my restraining palm
          The strident beat of insect´wings
          The silvery trickle of water
          Little breezes busy in the summer grass
          The music of crisp察whisking察scurrying leaves
          The swirling察wind´swept察frost´tinted leaves
          The crystal splash of summer rain
          Saturate with the odours of the sod。

          With alert fingers I listen
          To the showers of sound
          That the wind shakes from the forest。
          I bathe in the liquid shade
          Under the pines察where the air hangs cool
          After the shower is done。
          My saucy little friend the squirrel
          Flips my shoulder with his tail
          Leaps from leafy billow to leafy billow
          Returns to eat his breakfast from my hand。
          Between us there is glad sympathy
          He gambols察my pulses dance
          I am exultingly full of the joy of life

          Have not my fingers split the sand
          On the sun´flooded beach
          Hath not my naked body felt the water sing
          When the sea hath enveloped it
          With rippling music
          Have I not felt
          The lilt of waves beneath my boat
          The flap of sail
          The strain of mast
          The wild rush
          Of the lightning´charged winds
          Have I not smelt the swift察keen flight
          Of winged odours before the tempest
          Here is joy awake察aglow
          Here is the tumult of the heart。

          My hands evoke sight and sound out of feeling
          Intershifting the senses endlessly
          Linking motion with sight察odour with sound
          They give colour to the honeyed breeze
          The measure and passion of a symphony
          To the beat and quiver of unseen wings。
          In the secrets of earth and sun and air
          My fingers are wise
          They snatch light out of darkness
          They thrill to harmonies breathed in silence。

          I walked in the stillness of the night
          And my soul uttered her gladness。
          O Night察still察odorous Night察I love thee
          O wide察spacious Night察I love thee
          O steadfast察glorious Night
          I touch thee with my hands
          I lean against thy strength
          I am forted。

          O fathomless察soothing Night
          Thou art a balm to my restless spirit
          I nestle gratefully in thy bosom
          Dark察gracious mother
          Like a dove察I rest in thy bosom。
          _Out of the uncharted察unthinkable dark we came
          And in a little time we shall return again
          Into the vast察unanswering dark。_
