I have seen what the seraphs have seen...

I have seen what the seraphs have seen As they gaze thro' the limitless air— Thro' the wind and the clouds to the lean Pale face of the moon, and the bare Bright flame of the sun, unaware, I have seen what the seraphs have seen

Thro' the limitless spaces of air The brave mists that waver and wane Are patient and pallid and fair. I have fathomed the pride and the pain Of the snows and compassionate rain Thro' the limitless spaces of air

I have known them, the brave mists that wane And the glory and peace of the skies. Where all strife and impatience are vain And ahush are all passionate sighs, For I gazed in the deeps of Love's eyes, And I know what no seraphs shall gain!
