Canto 4

The Vision and the Boon

The Advent of the Divine Mother

An Influence had approached the mortal range,

A boundless Heart was near his longing heart,

A mystic Form enveloped his earthly shape.

All at her contact broke from silence’ seal;

Spirit and body thrilled identified,

Linked in the grasp of an unspoken joy;

Mind, members, life were merged in ecstasy.

Intoxicated as with nectarous rain

His nature’s passioning stretches flowed to her,

Flashing with lightnings, mad with luminous wine.

All was a limitless sea that heaved to the moon....

Even lost in slumber, mute, inanimate

His very body answered to her power.

............

Aswapati and the Divine Mother

Nothing now moved in the vast brooding space:

A stillness came upon the listening world,

A mute immensity of the Eternal’s peace.

But Aswapati’s heart replied to her,

A cry amid the silence of the Vasts:

“How shall I rest content with mortal days

And the dull measure of terrestrial things,

............

Savitri and Her Mission

“O strong forerunner, I have heard thy cry.

One shall descend and break the iron Law,

Change Nature’s doom by the lone spirit’s power.

A limitless Mind that can contain the world,

A sweet and violent heart of ardent calms

Moved by the passions of the gods shall come.

All mights and greatnesses shall join in her;

Beauty shall walk celestial on the earth,

Delight shall sleep in the cloud-net of her hair,

And in her body as on his homing tree

Immortal Love shall beat his glorious wings.

A music of griefless things shall weave her charm;
