Title: Arcanna
Author: Madison Julius Cawein [ More Titles by Cawein]
Earth hath her images of utterance, Her hieroglyphic meanings which elude; A symbol language of similitude, Into whose secrets science may not glance; In which the Mind-in-Nature doth romance In miracles that baffle if pursued-- No guess shall search them and no thought intrude Beyond the limits of her sufferance. So doth the great Intelligence above Hide His own thought's creations; and attire Forms in the dream's ideal, which He dowers With immaterial loveliness and love-- As essences of fragrance and of fire-- Preaching th' evangels of the stars and flowers.
[The end] Madison Julius Cawein's poem: Arcanna ________________________________________________
