"I dwell in Possibility-
A fairer House than Prose-
More numerous of Windows-
Superior-for Doors-
Of Chambers as the Cedars-
Impregnable of Eye-
And for an Everlasting Roof-
The Gambrels of the Sky-
Of Visitors- the fairest-
For Occupation-This-
The spreading wide my narrow hands
To gather Paradise-
