The element of mysticism can be seen in most of Holst's music, but nowhere is it achieved with such economy of means as it is in the first verse of this anthem; the second and third verses are almost as sparse. It is not until the last verse that the splendor of the text breaks through and the full orchestra is finally utilized. This is truly an original masterpiece.
