the spirit of the eternal creator

From the most inaccessible of mountains, to the desert where no man has ever set foot, to the very ends of the unknown ocean, breaths the spirit of the eternal Creator, rejoicing in every speck of dust that is alive and knows Him-Ah, how often in former times did I long for the wings of a crane that passed overhead, to fly to the shores of the measureless sea, and there drink the full joy of Life from the foaming goblet of the Eternal, and taste, if only for a single moment, with the limited power that is in my breast, one drop of the blessed serenity of that Being who makes all things, in Himself and through Himself.
