(S 1) | ||
He spoke and ceased and left the earthly scene. | ||
(S 2) | ||
899 | Away from the strife and suffering on our globe, | |
He turned towards his far-off blissful home. | ||
(S 3) | ||
A brilliant arrow pointing straight to heaven, | ||
The luminous body of the ethereal seer | ||
Assailed the purple glory of the noon | ||
904 | And disappeared like a receding star | |
Vanishing into the light of the Unseen. | ||
(S 4) | ||
But still a cry was heard in the infinite, | ||
And still to the listening soul on mortal earth | ||
A high and far imperishable voice | ||
909 | Chanted the anthem of eternal love. |
