The mystic mover was revealed to science,

No Dark Companion, but—a speck of light:

No Dark Companion, but a sun of glory:

No fell disturber, but a bright compeer:

The shining complement that crowned the story:

The golden link that made the meaning clear.

Oh, Dark Companion, journeying ever by us,

Oh, grim Perturber of our works and ways,

Oh, potent Dread, unseen, yet ever nigh us,

Disquieting all the tenor of our days—
