How much of GodhoodLouis UntermeyerHow much of Godhood did it take — What purging epochs had to pass, Ere I was fit for leaf and lake And worthy of the patient grass?What mighty travails must have been, What ages must have moulded me, Ere I was raised and made akin To dawn, the daisy and the sea.In what great struggles was I felled, In what old lives I labored long, Ere I was given a world that held A meadow, butterflies and Song?But oh, what cleansings and what fears, What countless raisings from the dead, Ere I could see Her, touched with tears, Pillow the little weary head.
