But a dim and noonday gleam
From the shadow of a dream!
THIRD SPIRIT.
Peace! the abyss is wreathed with scorn
At your presumption, atom-born!
What is heaven? and what are ye
Who its brief expanse inherit?
What are suns and spheres which flee
With the instinct of that Spirit
Of which ye are but a part?
Drops which NatureΓÇÖs mighty heart
Drives through thinnest veins. Depart!
What is heaven? A globe of dew,
