Text Appearing Before Image:
s of jet Above the burning deep : And yet there is a moment When the suns highest pointPeers like a star oer oceans western edge.When those far clouds of feathery purple gleamLike fairy lands girt by some heavenly sea:251 The Daemon of the World Then has thy rapt imagination soaredWhere in the midst of all existing thingsThe temple of the mightiest Daemon stands. Yet not the golden islandsThat gleam amid yon flood of purple hght, Nor the feathery curtainsThat canopy the suns resplendent couch, Nor the burnished ocean waves Paving that gorgeous dome, So fair, so wonderful a sightAs the eternal temple could afford.The elements of all that human thoughtCan frame of lovely or sublime, did joinTo rear the fabric of the fane, nor aughtOf earth may image forth its majesty.Yet likest evenings vault that faery hall.As heaven low resting on the wave itspread Its floors of flashing light. Its vast and azure dome;And on the verge of that obscure abyssWhere crystal battlements oerhang the gulph252
Text Appearing After Image:
The Dasmon of the World Of the dark world, ten thousand spheres diffuseTheir lustre through its adamantine gates. The magic car no longer moved; The Daemon and the Spirit Entered the eternal gates. Those clouds of aery gold That slept in glittering billows Beneath the azure canopy,With the ethereal footsteps trembled not; While slight and odorous mistsFloated to strains of thrilling melodyThrough the vast columns and the pearlyshrines. The Daemon and the SpiritApproached the overhanging battlement.Below lay stretched the boundless universe ! There, far as the remotest lineThat limits swift imaginations flight.Unending orbs mingled in mazy motion. Immutably fulfilling Eternal Natures law.253 The Daemon of the World Above, below, around,The circling systems formedA wilderness of harmony.Each with undeviating aimIn eloquent silence through the depths of spacePursued its wondrous way. — Awhile the Spirit paused in ecstasy.Yet soon she saw, as the vast spheres swept by.Strange things wit
