Silence, and all that tinted pageant, base

To pinnacle, one flush from fairy-land

Dead-asleep and deserted somewhere,—see!—

As a fresh sun, wave, spring and joy outburst.

Or else the earth it is, time starts from trance,

Her mountains tremble into fire, her plains

Heave blinded by confusion: what result?

New teeming growth, surprises of strange life

Impossible before, a world, broke up

And re-made, order gained by law destroyed.
