Collected Poems

SABCL - Volume 5

VI. Poems in New Metres
Fragments

Seer deep-hearted

Seer deep-hearted, divine King of the secrecies,

Occult fountain of love sprung from the heart of God,

Ways thou knewest no feet ever in time had trod.

Words leaped shining,1 the flame-billows of wisdom’s seas,

Vast in thy2 soul was a tide washing the coasts of heaven,

Thoughts broke burning and bare crossing the human night,

White star-scripts of the gods born from the presses3 of Light

Page by page to the dim children of earth were given.
