Its all-subduing energies, and wields

The sceptre of a vast dominion there;

Whilst every shape and mode of matter lends

Its force to the omnipotence of Mind,

Which from its dark mine drags the gem of Truth

To decorate its paradise of Peace.”

In rapt vision the prophet-poet apostrophises the “New Earth”:

“O happy Earth! reality of Heaven,

To which those restless souls, that ceaselessly

Throng through the human universe, aspire.
