AN ASTROLOGER'S SONG by

Rudyard Kipling

To the $ea#ens abo#e us

look and beholdThe 7lanets that lo#e us

%ll harnessed in gold!

+hat chariots, what horses,

%gainst us shall bide

+hile the 8tars in their courses

9o fight on our side1

%ll thought, all desires,

That are under the sun,

%re one with their fires, %s we also are one

%ll matter, all spirit,

%ll fashion, all frame,

:ecei#e and inherit

Their strength from the same

h, man that deniest

%ll power sa#e thine own,

Their power in the highest

Is mightily shown Not less in the lowest

That power is made clear

5h, man, if thou knowest,

+hat treasure is here!6

4arth uakes in her throes

%nd we wonder for why

But the blind planet knows

+hen her ruler is nigh;

%nd, attuned since 'reation

To perfect accord,

8he thrills in her station

%nd yearns to her (ordThe waters ha#e risen,

The springs are unbound2

The floods break their prison,

%nd ra#in around

No rampart withstands 3em, Their fury will last,

Till the 8ign that commands 3em

8inks low or swings past

Through abysses unpro#en,

3er gulfs beyond thought,

ur portion is wo#en,

ur burden is brought

et They that prepare it,

+hose Nature we share,

/ake us who must bear it

+ell able to bear

Though terrors o3ertake us

+e3ll not be afraid

No 7ower can unmake us

8a#e that which has made

Nor yet beyond reason

r hope shall we fall2 %ll things ha#e their season,

%nd /ercy crowns all!

Then, doubt not, ye fearful2

The 4ternal is <ing2

0p, heart, and be cheerful,

%nd lustily sing. 2

What chariots, what horses,

Against us shall bide

While the Stars in their courses Do fight on our side?
