Metrical Experiments

3 

In a flaming as of spaces

Curved like spires

An epiphany of faces,

Long curled fires,

The illumined and tremendous

Masque drew near,

A god-pageant of the aeons

Vast, deep-hued,

And the thunder of its paeans,

Wide-winged, nude

In their harmony stupendous,

Smote earth’s ear.
