"Enchanted by the charms of dust, Again and again I turned to it, Filled, refilled in all its forms, Put all its poses and its tints." 59 "Moved up and down in varied ways, In various climes, in various places, Lived in heaven, hellish zones, But none gave the cherished goal." 60 "Ages have past and eras rolled, Still no rest from outer quests, Now let me turn to inner self, For tried old things, no use of quest." 61
