supramundane

About the middle of the eleventh century Psellus describes another Manich�an sect named Euchit�, who believed in a father ruling the supramundane regions and committing to the younger of his two sons the heavens and to the elder the earth.

Supramundane, sū-pra-mun′dān, adj. above the world.

Several of his supramundane gambits made copy for newsmen of the 1860s.

He was no transcendentalist, and never meddled with supramundane things.

So my friends That which other mortals lures like a fly on the hook To sweet destruction Because of a lack of higher discriminative art Becomes for the truly wise A Pegasus to supramundane travel.
