I am by virtues greater Than all this fair mid-earth Yet less, than a worm of soil I am lighter, than the moon Move swifter, than the sun The seas are all and rivers too In my strong embrace This lap of earth With its green plains Its depths I Touch I Move and I wave To Hell I can descend But mount over the heavens On all sides I reach To Earth I fill and all sea-streams On all sides with myself Over the abode of Men Yet I am unseen But all Men know That I am here eternal! Whether sun doth shine Or rain descend I remain, I will remain Till all life's end!
