Nor I can give nor you can take endures | B |
The simple truth of me that is yours | B |
Is not the music mingled with the form | C |
When all the heavens break in blind black storm | C |
Are we not veiled as Gods and cruel as they | D |
Smiting our brilliance on the shuddering clay | D |
Silence and darkness cover us confirm | E |
Our splendour to its unappointed term | E |
For all the men homunculi that dance | F |
Around us shudder at our brilliance | G |
These puppets perish in the good grand glare | H |
Our sworded sunlight in the boundless air | H |
These bats need cloisters these tame birds a cage | I |
How should they know the Masters of the Age | I |
Or understand when the archangels cry | J |
Adoring us Ell n kat' asterh ei | K |
