[69] “Pregnant with magic will and change divine ”
[70] “And the keen lust and hunger of its will ”
[71] “The will to conquer and have, to seize and keep,”
[72] “Yet are its roots of will ever the same; ”
[73] “And actions driven by a blind creature will ”
[74] “An unborn godhead s will, a mute Desire ”
[75] “And jets of subconscious will or hunger s pulls ”
[76] “A thought was there that planned, a will that strove, ”
[77] “Ignorant and dangerous wills but armed with power, ”
[78] “A slowly changing order binds our will ”
[79] “Yet is all here his action and his will ”
