In clanging space a moment heard,

Troubling the endless reverie.

Then no wise worship dusty deeds,

Nor seek—for this is also sooth—

To hunger fiercely after truth,

Lest all thy toiling only breeds

New dreams, new dreams; there is no truth

Saving in thine own heart. Seek, then,

No learning from the starry men,

Who follow with the optic glass
