Beyond.

The Dawn

Æons may pass before my hopes for earth are all fulfilled;                                             

But let “the dawn” approach, I pray, Before my lips are stilled!

And let true knowledge cover earth As waters cover sea                                   

Knowledge of truth, knowledge of love, Knowledge, dear God, of Thee!

I wait the music of the spheres, The rhythmic pulse of earth,                                                

Which, when Death’s angelus doth ring, Announce immortal birth:

In that blest home beyond the veil No discord rends the air.                                                  

The law of harmony prevails And love reigns everywhere.

Dante
