[1] More light. Another step, and still more light / Opening ahead. It swilled with soft excess, / His eyes yet quivering from the dregs of night, / And it was nowhere more and nowhere less: / In it no shadows were. He could not guess / Its fountain. Wondering round around he turned: / Still on each side the level glory burned.
[2] Far into the dome to where his gaze was lost / The deepening roof shone clear as stones that lie / In-shore beneath pure seas. The aisles, that crossed / Like forests of white stone their arms on high, / Past pillar after pillar dragged his eye / In unobscured perspective till the sight / Was weary. And there also was the light.
