Canto 10Revelation
Book 3. Part Three - Baroda and Bengal Circa 1900 – 1909
Someone leaping from the rocks
Past me ran with wind-blown locks
Like a startled bright surmise
Visible to mortal eyes, —
5Just a cheek of frightened rose
That with sudden beauty glows,
Just a footstep like the wind
And a hurried glance behind,
And then nothing, — as a thought
10Escapes the mind ere it is caught.
Someone of the heavenly rout
From behind the veil ran out.
