In the dreamlands of sun,
He streams the invisible rivers
Of lit glories to come,
Careens, lording the beams,
Airs, above the ordinary
Grasses that dry in the gleams,
With eyes that wash over kills,
The forking fowl and mealy vole,
Hare in the runaway hills,
High above the fourth wall, stead-
Fast, stately in his dress,
To commencements of death,
Where eagle strikes with talon,
Crescent as day moon,
Sudden, silent to the cast fallen.

The fourth wall is the imaginary "wall" at the front of the stage in a traditional three-walled box set in a proscenium theatre, through which the audience sees the action in the world of the play.
