DESIRE OF VASTNESSSupreme with night, what high mysteriarch—The undreamt-of god beyond the trinal noonOf elder suns empyreal—past the moonCircling some wild world outmost in the dark—Lays on me this unfathomed wish to harkWhat central sea with plume-plucked midnight strewn,Plangent to what enormous pleniluneThat lifts in silence, hinderless and stark?The brazen comprehension of the waste,The waste inclusion of the brazen sky—These I desire, and all things wide and deep;And, lifted past the level years, would tasteThe cup of an Olympian ecstasy,Titanic dream, and Cyclopean sleep.

Supreme with night, what high mysteriarch—
The undreamt-of god beyond the trinal noon
Of elder suns empyreal—past the moon
Circling some wild world outmost in the dark—
Lays on me this unfathomed wish to hark
What central sea with plume-plucked midnight strewn,
Plangent to what enormous plenilune
That lifts in silence, hinderless and stark?
The brazen comprehension of the waste,The waste inclusion of the brazen sky—These I desire, and all things wide and deep;And, lifted past the level years, would tasteThe cup of an Olympian ecstasy,Titanic dream, and Cyclopean sleep.
The brazen comprehension of the waste,
The waste inclusion of the brazen sky—
These I desire, and all things wide and deep;
And, lifted past the level years, would taste
The cup of an Olympian ecstasy,
Titanic dream, and Cyclopean sleep.
