Leaving to Love at last the victory.
O'er all the [?] heat and fever pain
The sordid walk and talk of [squalid?] men
He saw the vision changeless as the stars
That shone through temple gate and [?] bare
O'er all the meanness of the life that is
The splendor of the light that yet shall be.

So, when [?] him for a little space,
Men whom the light did blind [?] angrily
And nailed his body to the cruel tree
He did resist them not nor say them nay
In Heaven's own mystery plain before him lay
And in man's life,
he saw God face to face!

David [St...?] Jordan.
