Teaching the march of Man to hurrying feet,

Shall ye not haunt those skyward spaces still

With memory of your sun-illumined streaming,

Bright brother-angels heralding goodwill,

Beckoners of sordid spirits to noble dreaming?

Or shall your many beauteous blazonries

Fade out from the dulled sense and be forgot,

And intimations so august as these

Lapse into silence even as they were not,

Comrades turn rivals, and heart-fast allies
