I plunged to regions where the Spring is born,

Myself (I asked not how) the April wind,

Myself the elements that are of God.

Up flowery stairways of eternity

I whirled in wonder and untrammeled joy,

An atom, yet a portion of His dream—

His dream that knows no end....

I was the rain,

I was the dawn, I was the purple east,

I was the moonlight on enchanted nights,
