THE STUFF OF PARADISE.
/\Ya men of earth have hero the stuff Of Paradise. We have enough. We need no other stcnos to build The stairs into the Unfulfilled— No other ivovy for the doers— No other marble for the floors— No other cedar for the beam And dome of man's immortal drer.au. Hero on the paths of every day— Hero on the common human way— Is all the stuff the gods would take To build a heaven, to mould and make New Edons. Ours the stuff uublimc To build eternity in time-! —Edwin Markham
