PREFACE

The following poem is intended to convey the doctrine of what is often mistermed “The New Thought”; namely, that by conscious union with the indwelling Principle of Life, man may attain completeness here and now. “Out of the Silence,” while structurally conforming to the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, is directly opposite in its teaching.
