One man lights you with his ardourA
one decks you in mourning NatureA
What says to the first 'A Sepulchre 'B
To the other cries 'Life and splendour 'B

Unknown Hermes who assistsC
yet intimidates me as wellD
you make me Midas' equalE
the saddest of alchemistsC

You help me change gold to ironF
paradise to hell's kingdomG
in the shrouded atmosphereA

I find a dear corpse and onH
the celestial shores it's thereA
I build a mighty sepulcherA
