The Microcosm
THE MICROCOSM .
Bright Microcosm of high celestial types,
World of rare form and color, quaint,
Instructive in eternal laws which bind
All creatures, — vield us now thy truth!
Bear us above the sordid things of time,
For one brief hour; and let us see above ,
Below, around this secret chamber, what
The Sages wrote upon the mystic tombs
That yawn in emptiness along the Nile.
