Earth-grief
burnt hisbody’s frame.
Earth-jealousy
burnt hislife-fame.
Earth-ignorance
burnt hisGod-Vision.
Yet his soul
loves earth,treasures earth,
For earth isGod’s eternal Choice,
His ultimate Voice.```
877. It seems likely first edition text had mistype with ‘art’ for ‘earth’ on line 11,12,13. Original text was: | Yet his soul loves art, treasures art, | For art is God’s eternal Choice, His ultimate Voice.↩
