And the host of airy quill-drivers

First dipped their pens in mist.

Truth, Goodness, Beauty,—those celestial thrins,[32]

Continually are born; e'en now the Universe,

With thousand throats, and eke with greener smiles,

Its joy confesses at their recent birth.

Strange that so many fickle gods, as fickle as the weather,

Throughout Dame Nature's provinces should always pull together.
