Heaven-Bound

With REVERENCE he approached the sacred ground 
ENCOMPASSED by a haughty sense of pride,
Content in knowing he was heaven-bound,
That certain PREDILICTION, not denied;
CONSTERNATION showed at once, he could see 
CONDEMNATION from above, then APATHY;
UNEARTHLINESS a practice he’d not tried.
