What was the wood, what the tree out of which heaven and earth were fashioned?

What was the wood, what the tree out of which heaven and earth were fashioned?
“All souls beneath the gloom
That pass with little flames,
All these till time be run
Pass one by one
As Christs to save, and die;
What wrong one sowed,
Behold, another reaps!
Where lips awake our joy
The sad heart sleeps
Within.”
Ezra Pound | “To Our Lady of Vicarious Atonement”
