Unnumbered traits shine in thy face...

Unnumbered traits shine in thy face . . . . . . . . Harmonious blent in Time and Space; Ideal of form, of tone, of color, Of thought, emotion, and deed, O Grace!

Ay me! I speak familiar words. Thou art a presence of my Lord's! Spirit of splendor, thou, O Beauty, That lights His brow, and that crowns and girds.

O Christ, Thou bright Heaven's Morning Star, In whom all live and move and are, Thou Chiefest, altogether lovely, Beauty in Time is Thy avatar!
