HE Soul's superior instants

Occur to Her alone,

When friend and earth's occasion

Have infinite withdrawn.

Or she, Herself, ascended

To too remote a height,

For lower recognition

Than Her Omnipotent.

This mortal abolition

Is seldom, but as fair

As Apparition—subject

To autocratic air.

Eternity's disclosure

To favorites, a few,

Of the Colossal substance

Of immortality.
