THE FIRST DREAMER by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: HE WOKE TO CLASP THE VISION OF HIS DREAM
Last Line: EACH MIGHT IN GOD BEHOLD THE OTHER'S HEART.
Subject(s): DREAMS; NIGHTMARES;
He woke to clasp the vision of his dream,
A self from self divided, that apart --
Twin banks begotten of the selfsame stream --
Each might in God behold the other's heart.
