There is that in me⁠—I do not know what it is⁠—but I know it is in me.

Wrench’d and sweaty⁠—calm and cool then my body becomes,

I sleep⁠—I sleep long.

I do not know it⁠—it is without name⁠—it is a word unsaid,

It is not in any dictionary, utterance, symbol.

Something it swings on more than the earth I swing on,

To it the creation is the friend whose embracing awakes me.

Perhaps I might tell more. Outlines! I plead for my brothers and sisters.

Do you see O my brothers and sisters?

It is not chaos or death⁠—it is form, union, plan⁠—it is eternal life⁠—it is Happiness.
