The Guardian of the Threshold: Scene 6

The Other Philia: Let man struggle on To him who bears light And opens out worlds Which quicken in men The sense of delight. This beauty so bright Awakened in souls, Inspired to admire, The spirit leads on To realms of the gods. Achievement consoles The feelings that dare The threshold to tread, Which strictly doth guard 'Gainst souls that feel fear. And energy finds A will that grows ripe And fearless doth stand 'Fore powers that create And fashion the worlds.
