Do all these swirls of suns and souls,
Of spirits keen and senseless stone,
Speed on to no appointed goals,
Like sand along the desert blown,--
Forever born from out the void,
To be destroyed?

Nay, Reason, shocked at anarchy,
Demands an author and an aim,
Seeks ever for the master-key
To solve the mystery,--Whence came
This starlit sea of Evermore,
Without a shore?

Galactic and Stellar Evolution

A curious feature of the Universe is the way in which it is composed of an alternation of highly dense and highly vacuous states.
