Explore "Sacrifice" by George William Russell on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Those delicate wanderers, / The wind, the star, the cloud, / Ever before mine eyes, / As to an altar bowed, / Light and dew-laden airs / Offer in sacrifice.
The offerings arise: / Hazes of rainbow light, / Pure crystal, blue, and gold, / Through dreamland take their flight; / And 'mid the sacrifice / God moveth as of old.
In miracles of fire / He symbols forth his days; / In gleams of crystal light / Reveals what pure pathways / Lead to the soul's desire, / The silence of the height.
