The high noises, br The great voices, br They of the sky br In the clouds wrangle, br Jar it and jangle br Till Death shall die. br In the bright houses br With their false spouses br The high ones rave — br Gods in a passion, br As those in their fashion br Who go to the grave. br Out of the portal br Where never a mortal br Has climbed or been, br Their insane thunder br Comes to us under br The holy demesne.
