Nor, as from each to each exultingly

He passes, overleaps one grade of joy.

This, for his own good:—with the world, each gift

Of God and man,—reality, tradition,

Fancy and fact—so well environ him,

That as a mystic panoply they serve—

Of force, untenanted, to awe mankind,

And work his purpose out with half the world,

While he, their master, dexterously slipt

From such encumbrance, is meantime employed
