7. THE MASTER

(December 5, 1950)

```

Today, today beholds the world entire

The snow-trance of the deathless Sovereign.

His fire-winged Will clasps firm the withes of dust;

No more the ignorance-chain.

A blazing hope that knows not how to cease

Now flies through earth’s sky-breast.

He was, He is, and shall be; nowhere his end,

And He, the brooding Nest

Of teeming vast and immortality.

Our nature’s creative flow

To Him now leaps with heart immaculate.

The pinnacled Guide and Glow

Is He, and He the sacrifice sublime.

The Gnostic Sun from Him

Bursts forth, the golden All floods the Mother’s core

Of hyaline immortal Dream.
