48. O day of Eternity, let Thy wave break in foamless glory of sapphire upon the laborious coral of our making!
49. We have made us a ring of glistening white sand, strewn wisely in the midst of the Delightful Ocean. -

49. We have made us a ring of glistening white sand, strewn wisely in the midst of the Delightful Ocean.It is word-glut. This is not a criticism, it's just how it seems with all the images and qualifiers of images—foamless, sapphire, glistening of the Delightful Ocean! It's almost Glossolalia...
I get like this myself sometimes, except here I'm pretty sure it's because the writer is being swamped by an experience and the tongue is simply responding like severed frog-legs attached to an electrical charge...

"48. O day of Eternity, let Thy wave break in foamless glory of sapphire upon the laborious coral of our making!"
This is quite a spectacular image. I recommend simply visualizing yourself, in meditation, beneath an incessant falling wave of sapphire-colored "foamless glory," and with the understanding that it is the braeking in upon your reality of the "day of Eternity."
Coral - fascinating! It is the result of communal world. This is a rare and fascinating look at the shared, communal, even species-level unconscious collaboration in the Great Work. In some other year I really should explore that one symbol more fully.
