ELECTRIC PATHWAY TO SUNS 239 



life-giving sun and the mighty cities on its spacious 

 bosom, and graduated in the universities of heaven, 

 it will discover that eternity is scarcely long 

 enough to study and enjoy the marvelous creations 

 of the universe. It will find our world is but a 

 floating island in the great solar sea of electro- 

 magnetism, and the solar sea or empire of our sun 

 is but a small province in the boundless ocean of 

 space, hid in the infinite abyss of starry depths; 

 that measureless immensity and countless variety 

 reigns in the universe. Human souls will then be 

 free as air and untrammeled as ether, and may ex- 

 plore the vast highways of eternity with wonder- 

 seeking minds, and visit Jupiter with his enormous 

 moons, Saturn with his gigantic rings, and traverse 

 the out-lying orbs of distant Uranus and Neptune. 

 They may then pass to other solar realms, and 

 wander over the varied bosom of Andromeda's triple 

 suns of blue and green and sapphire tints that whirl 

 like globes of rainbow beauty in the azure sky, 

 and see the double stars and multiple suns, and 

 fiery comets with their glowing spooms, and blood- 

 red meteors, all following harmonious orbits through 

 the pulsing voids of space, vibrating to the rythmic 

 cadence of electric law. All moving with tranquil 

 majesty in the trackless seas of immensity obedient 

 to the Omnipotent Will. 



Here blooms infinite, varied life and ever-changing 

 beauty to thrill and bless the wonder-loving soul 

 and make melodious harmony with every pulsing 

 vibration of their imperishable life. The universe of 

 myriads of suns is separated by trillions of miles 

 and scattered like lighthouses along the realms of 

 space, as dynamos of heat and light and life, shoot-
