Afar, looks through alternately, like one

That watches round some treasure: often, too,

Through many a mile of ocean, sparkling through,

Are seen the stars and moon, all gloriously,

Bathing their angel brilliance in the sea!

“And there are shafted pillars, that beyond,

Are ranged before a rook of diamond,

Awfully heaving its eternal heights,

From base of silver strewn with chrysolites;

And over it are chasms of glory seen,
