The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

November 21

Creation under me, in, and above,

Slopes upward from the base, a pyramid,

On whose point I shall stand at last, and love.

From the first rush of vapour at thy will,

To the last poet-word that darkness chid,

Thou hast been sending up creation's hill,

To lift thy souls aloft in faithful Godhead free.
