"Star after star from Heaven’s high arch shall rush, Suns sink on suns, and systems systems crush, Headlong, extinct, to one dark centre fall, And Death and Night and Chaos mingle all! —Till o’er the wreck, emerging from the storm, Immortal lifts her changeful form, Mounts from her funeral pyre on wings of flame, And soars and shines, another and the same."
