“And then in the fulness of joy and hope,
Seemed washing his hands with invisible soap,
In imperceptible water.”

Their tongues with tasting, their hands with snowballing;
Or rioted in a drift, plunging up to the knees;”

Was Nothing from Eternity,
Did little think such Joys as Ear and Tongue
To celebrate or see:
Such Sounds to hear, such Hands to feel, such Feet,
Such Eyes and Objects, on the Ground to meet.”
