In Tears Bereaved |
| Beautiful, oh web of stars |
| That looms amid the sons of Earth |
| Enfolds me in thine sylvan arms |
| That unity’s vehement charms |
| Befalls a weary son of earth |
| Beautiful, in tears bereaved |
| In sylphlike sadness, left to bleed |
| Bewailed upon a bed of thorns, |
| Impaled, a heart, on sorrow’s horns |
| A seeker’s ode to thee I read |
| My tearful soul thy mourning heed |
| The stream that leaves thine open wounds; |
| A life-blood licked by hungry hounds |
| No verdant balm to soothe our wounds |
| Wherefore betwixt two worlds I’m torn |
| Ere thralled by sin I’ll die — Forlorn |
| This slumbering world of shallow fools |
| May one day clasp the cosmic Hell |
| Lest journeymen by earthen rules |
| Bring forth the truth for which angels fell |
| To the earth and sky and sea |
| I call that thou may answer me; |
| Father of nature, of beast and mankind, |
| My soul for thy love, my tears for thy pain |
| …An eden in fire, |
