The universe is not complete in you.

You’re just as bound to follow out his plan

And sink yourself in ever-growing Man

As ever were the earliest, crudest eggs

To grow to vertebrates with arms and legs.

Society holds not its present height

Merely that you may bring a child to light;

But you and yours live only in the plan

That’s working out a higher kind of man;

A higher kind of life, that shall let grow
