Book Excerpt: 
. . .You wrought until night with us all.
  The fierce brutes fawned at your call,
  Then slipped to their lairs, song-chained.
  And thus you sang sweetly, and reigned:
  "Immortal is the inner peace, free to beasts and men.
  Beginning in the darkness, the mystery will conquer,
  And now it comforts every heart that seeks for love again.
  And now the mammoth bows the knee,
  We hew down every Tiger Tree,
  We send each tiger bound in love and glory to his den,
  Bound in love … and wisdom … and glory, … to his den."

III

  "Beware of the trumpeting swine,"
  Came the howl from the northward that night.
  Twice-rebel tigers warning was still
  If we held not beside them it boded us ill.
