<h2><SPAN name="page107"></SPAN><span class="pagenum"></span>ACTION</h2>
<p class="poetry">For ever stars are winging<br/>
Their swift and endless race;<br/>
For ever suns are swinging<br/>
Their mighty globes through space.<br/>
Since by his law required<br/>
To join God’s spheres inspired,<br/>
The earth has never tired,<br/>
But whirled and whirled and whirled.<br/>
For ever streams are flowing,<br/>
For ever seeds are growing,<br/>
Alway is Nature showing<br/>
That Action rules the world.</p>
<p class="poetry">And since by God requested<br/>
To <i>be</i>, the glorious light<br/>
Has never paused or rested,<br/>
But travelled day and night.<br/>
Yet pigmy man, unseeing<br/>
The purpose of his being,<br/>
Demands escape and freeing<br/>
From universal force.<br/>
But law is law for ever,<br/>
And like a mighty lever<br/>
It thrusts him tow’rd endeavour,<br/>
And speeds him on his course.</p>
