THE SOUL IN THE BODY by EDITH MATILDA THOMAS

First Line: WHAT IF THE SOUL HER REAL LIFE ELSEWHERE HOLDS
Last Line: LIVE SOMEWHERE YONDER IN THE STARLIT SPHERE?

WHAT if the Soul her real life elsewhere holds,
Her faint reflex Time's darkling stream enfolds,
And thou and I, though seeming dwellers here,
Live somewhere yonder in the starlit sphere?
