The Soul’s Choice and the Supreme Consummation 699<br />

O Sun-Word, thou shalt raise the earth-soul to Light<br />

And bring down God into the lives of men;<br />

Earth shall be my work-chamber and my house,<br />

My garden of life to plant a seed divine.<br />

When all thy work in human time is done<br />

The mind of earth shall be a home of light,<br />

The life of earth a tree growing towards heaven,<br />

The body of earth a tabernacle of God.<br />

Awakened from the mortal’s ignorance<br />

Men shall be lit with the Eternal’s ray<br />

And the glory of my sun-lift in their thoughts<br />

And feel in their hearts the sweetness of my love<br />

And in their acts my Power’s miraculous drive.<br />

My will shall be the meaning of their days;<br />

Living for me, by me, in me they shall live.<br />

In the heart of my creation’s mystery<br />

I will enact the drama of thy soul,<br />

Inscribe the long romance of Thee and Me.<br />

I will pursue thee across the centuries;<br />

Thou shalt be hunted through the world by love,<br />

Naked of ignorance’ protecting veil<br />

And without covert from my radiant gods.<br />

No shape shall screen thee from my divine desire,<br />

Nowhere shalt thou escape my living eyes.<br />

In the nudity of thy discovered self,<br />

In a bare identity with all that is,<br />

Disrobed of thy covering of humanity,<br />

Divested of the dense veil of human thought,<br />

Made one with every mind and body and heart,<br />

Made one with all Nature and with Self and God,<br />

Summing in thy single soul my mystic world<br />

I will possess in thee my universe,<br />

The universe find all I am in thee.<br />

Thou shalt bear all things that all things may change,<br />

Thou shalt fill all with my splendour and my bliss,<br />

Thou shalt meet all with thy transmuting soul.
