TESTIMONY OF THE SUNS,

How vast the gulfs of mans desire!
Children of Change. we dream to
share
The battle-vigil Of Affair
And watch great Fomalhaut expire;
To live where darkened suns resume
Their kingdoms in the abyssmal
haze
Where nearing night attends the
blaze
OF high Antares. red with doom;
To hear within the deep Of Law
The Word that moves her casual
tides;
To know where Permanence abides
Beyond the veil the senses draw.
And such the hope that fills thy
heart,
Q life! on some allegiant world
Round Procyn's throne Of thunder
whirled
or poised in Spica's gulf apart.
SO dreamt thy sons on worlds de-
stroyed
Whose dust allures our careless
eyes.
As, lit al last on alien skies.
The meteor melts athwart the void.
So shall thy seed on worlds to be, d.
10 be,
At altars built to suns afar.
Crave from the silence Of the star
solution Of thy mystery.
And crave unanswered. till. denied.
BY cOsmic gloom and stellar glare.
The brains are dust that bore the
prayer.
And dust the yearning lips tha;
cried. George Sterling.
