The One Divinity.

Life signs, as one in restless fever-sleep:
'Wearied am | with tributes, formal
signs,
The shaping of mine Essence into lines
OF worship, which in thrall mems new
thought keep
Such carsfulness but makes my spirit
weep
Which yearns toward him who nothing
earthly binds.
Who, Jesus-like, rends dogma till he
finds
Truth, from beneath blurred scripture,
skyward leap
The thorn crowned cross, the rose
wreathed Tyre of song
Hebrew and Greek, who are in me but
one
| bear as trophies from old Chaos Won.
And with them make contrasting gloom
and light,
To free YOU in the end from right and
wrong
Amid the deathless unsweep of my
fight
