Excerpt from Something Beyond: And Other Poems; Recreations of a Busy Life Something Beyond A type of the human soul Is the restless ocean, Anon reflecting the heavens' calm, Anon their commotion; Reaching after the moon As the mind for the sum of truth; Hiding within its caves The pearl and the monster, forsooth. Then, too, it never is full, Though numberless brimming urns Each of the thronging water nymphs Into its bosom turns. Down the hillsides, Through the valley, Up where mountain shadows rally, In the sunbeams' glow and glitter, 'Mong the nightshades rank and bitter, By the quiet, dreamy glen, Through the serpent-haunted fen, Over sanded ways of gold, Over granite sharp and cold, Come the nymphs in ceaseless train With their offerings to the main. Urns of crystal wreathed with foam, Sparkling like the azure dome, In the ocean's depths they pour, Yet it ever sighs for more. 'Tis even thus with the human soul, Though it drink from every proffered bowl Though it bow to satisfy its thirst Wherever the springing waters burst, It fails to quench the fond desire For something more and something higher About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
