A serious house on serious earth it is, In whose blent air all our compulsions meet, Are recognised, and robed as destinies.

A serious house on serious earth it is, In whose blent air all our compulsions meet, Are recognised, and robed as destinies.

在严肃的地球上，这是一所严肃的房子，我们所有的冲动都在它那和谐的空气中相遇，它被承认为命运的归宿。
