Shines through the clear sharp fact beneath your feet.

This is the test of both—that, in their wedding,

The light that was a disembodied dream

Burns through the fact, and makes a lanthorn of it,

Transfigures it, confirms it, gives it new

And deeper meanings; and itself, in turn,

Is thereby seen more truly.

Use your eyes;

And you, or those that follow you, will outsoar

Pythagoras.
