[33] 2 Then comes a change : a crash of chords rolls thundering And shakes the windows in their leaded panes; It thrills the throng who listen breathless- wondering, To hear the splendour of the sequent strains. 3 From out the chaos of the weird prophetical Emerges like the crystal Light of Life A fervid theme, spontaneous, poetical, That sings of strenuous Victory won from Strife. 4 With deeper tones the same great theme euphonious Ensues enmesht in woof of woven sounds, Thus grows the Fugue: ...a splendid web harmonious With a whole world of Beauty in its bounds. XVI APOSTROPHE TO JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH 1 Prestissimo Some who hear are rapt away From the environment of clay, Borne on wings of Rapture From Earth's trifling toys, Ready to recapture Something of Heaven's joys Which they long had lost At such bitter cost — [34] Borne beyond the Evening Star Infinitely far To the pearly gates Where the Flame-guard waits Each with his flashing scimetar! 2 Oh, the Soul's attuned ear Songs of heavenly Choirs may hear Praise to God forth-pouring, Set to harps of Gold Struck by rapt adoring Angel hosts white-stoled, While the crystalline Harmonies divine Of the far-revolving spheres, Carrying golden years, Swell like Organ-notes, And above all floats Love's Eternal Hymn of Joys and Tears.
