EARLIER POEMS
You have dethroned the ancient God,
You have usurped his Sabbath, his common days;
Yea, every moment is delivered to you,
Our Temple, our Eternal, our one God !
Our souls have passed into your eyes,
Our days into your hair
And you, our rose-deaf prison, are very pleased
with the world,
Your world.
