Moirai Trimorphoi" stood unmasked the Ultimate.

CXXVI

Enough o' the dream! You see how poetry turns prose.

Announcing wonder-work, I dwindle at the close

Down to mere commonplace old facts which everybody knows.

So dreaming disappoints! The fresh and strange at first,

Soon wears to trite and tame, nor warrants the outburst

Of heart with which we hail those heights, at very brink

Of heaven, whereto one least of lifts would lead, we think,

But wherefrom quick decline conducts our step, we find,
