MAN IS A SOUL CLAD IN AIR 89 



thetic joy. These are but the ideals and mani- 

 festations of that which is higher and greater, 

 which is written in the soul of man as in a book. 



Man is the greatest thing in this world ah ! in the 

 universe next to Deity. He is the offspring of Om- 

 nipotence, the Child of the Sun, the inheritor of the 

 universe. All suns and worlds, all life and space are 

 the playgrounds of his activities. He shall dwell in 

 the home of Deity, stroll in the garden of the gods, 

 bask in the radiance of central suns, recline on the 

 daffodil meadows and wander in the elysian fields of 

 paradise. He is at home in the measureless expanse 

 of all ether and space. 



Wherever an atom vibrates or an electric current 

 thrills, there he is the monarch of spiritual power, 

 and can command the electric force that tosses suns 

 upon their course and plays football with the stars. 

 Man is no worm of the dust, he is the darling of the 

 skies, the ruler of suns, the cherubim of celestial 

 destiny clad in terrestrial ether and winged with the 

 spiritual power of Omnipotence. 



Who nobly does must nobly think, 

 The soul that soars can never sink, 

 And man's a strange connecting link 

 Between frail dust and Deity.
