Now has time picked up tachyonic speed
A flame of rapture in the clay-pot of consequence
Gathers elements to make life contentful, divine;
To the wonder’s chances has a dream opened out
And every quark jumps up in joy of the morrow;
Because it is there in ounce and ounce of matter,
Matter houses thunder and calm of its call;
Now has time picked up tachyonic speed
For the manifesting spirit firmly to flourish.

O beautiful body of the incarnate Word,
Thy thoughts are mine, I have spoken with thy voice. ||154.1||
My will is thine, what thou hast chosen I choose. ||154.2||
All thou hast asked I give to earth and men…. ||154.3||
Now will I do in thee my marvellous works…. ||154.7||
O Sun-Word, thou shalt raise the earth-soul to Light
And bring down God into the lives of men… ||154.10||
Summing in thy single soul my mystic world
I will possess in thee my universe,
The universe find all I am in thee. ||154.17||

Let us scan the full passage:
O Sun-Word,| thou shalt| raise the| earth-soul| to Light|
And bring| down God| in+to| the lives| of men;|
Earth shall| be my| work-cham|+ber and| my house,|
My gar+den| of life| to plant| a seed| di+vine.|154.10
When all| thy work| in hu|+man time| is done,|
The mind| of earth| shall be| a home| of light,|
The life| of earth| a tree grow|+ing to+wards| heav+en,|
The bod+y| of earth| a tab+er|+nac+le| of God.| 154.11
A+wak|+ened from| the mor|+tal’s ig|+no+rance|
Men shall| be lit| with the| E+ter|+nal’s ray|
And the glo|+ry of| my sun|-lift in| their thoughts|
And feel| in their hearts| the sweet|+ness of| my love|
And in| their acts| my Pow|+er’s mi+rac|+u+lous drive.| 154.12
