Evolution (1895; 1909)
Context: Thus life by life and love by love
We passed through the cycles strange,
And breath by breath and death by death
We followed the chain of change.
Till there came a time in the law of life
When o’er the nursing sod,
The shadows broke and soul awoke
In a strange, dim dream of God.
“We breathe the light, we breathe the music, we breathe the moment as it passes through us.”

Breathing out, it is a wonderful moment.”
