WHAT will the superwoman be, of whom we sing- / She who is coming over the dim border / Of Far To-morrow, after earth's disorder / Is tidied up by Time? What will she bring / To make life better on tempestuous earth? / How will her worth / Be greater than her forbears? What new power / Within her being will burst into flower?
She will bring beauty, not the transient dower / Of adolescence which departs with youth- / But beauty based on knowledge of the truth / Of its eternal message and the source / Of all its potent force. / Her outer being by the inner thought / Shall into lasting loveliness be wrought.
