SONGS OF THE SOUL
VISION OF VISIONS
Beloved Lord,Adored of gods,Behold, beholdThy body holdsAll fleshly tenants, seers fine,The diverse saints divine.Indwelling mystery cave,The Serpent Nature’s forceful crave,Though fierce and subtle, now is tame,Forgetful of her deadly game;And Sovran Brahma, God of gods,On lotus seat is snug secured.O Cosmic-Bodied Lord of worlds,Oh, I behold, again beholdThee all and everywhereThy countless arms and trunks and eyes!Yet, drooping dark my knowledge liesAbout Thy birth and reign and presence here.
