Toward true love, in progress of the Earth,

But which but error upon error heap

When they are fashioned by an evil mind

And in the soul transform themselves to ill.

’Tis true that Lucifer doth show himself

As bearer of the light to man’s soul-sight

When it would seek to gaze on spirit-space.

But then the human soul will always wish

To waken also in its inmost depths

What it can only gaze on and admire.
