Rose Petals 
I LOOKED Avitliin the petals of a rose 
And there I saw Beauty— 
Pale, trembling- dewdrops pearled* without a flaw 
Vast distances of unexplored desire, 
Deep, crystal pools that mirrored moon and star 
And love exalted in the soul of man— 
These lovely things I saw 
Within the petals of a rose. 
I looked Avithin the petals of a rose 
And there I saw Truth— 
Exquisite harmony, consumate laAv; 
I saw the Master Architect compute 
Eternal formnlae of Time and Space 
And fix for every Sphere its place— 
These perfect things I saw 
Within the petals of a rose.
