In about the worlds I scatterRays with sunshine's blessings rife,And I tinge the clouds I shatterWith the golden glow of life.
Then I flash out into boundlessSpace—until my rays disperse—Until I am tired of endlessGrasping at the universe.
Out beyond the fartherest heavensLie there other heavens still,Bounded still by other heavens,Bounded still by heavens still.
Countless years my rays have wanderedThreading constellations bright,Far beyond yon star bespatteredVaulted canopy of night.
I can never find a limitOn from sun to sun I race,Touching lightly on the planetIslands of the sea of space.—Charles Browning.
