Issuing from the Word	A
The seven days came	B
Each in its own place	C
Its own name	B
And the first long days	D
A hard and rocky spring	E
Inhuman burgeoning	E
And nothing there for claw or hand	F
Vast loneliness ere loneliness began	G
Where the blank seasons in their journeying	E
Saw water at play with water and sand with sand	F
The waters stirred	A
And from the doors were cast	H
Wild lights and shadows on the formless face	C
Of the flood of chaos vast	H
Lengthening and dwindling image of earth and heaven	I
The forest's green shadow	J
Softly over the water driven	I
As if the earth's green wonder endless meadow	J
Floated and sank within its own green light	K
In water and night	K
Sudden appeared the lion's violent head	L
Raging and burning in its watery cave	M
The stallion's tread	L
Soundless fell on the flood and the animals poured	N
Onward flowing across the flowing wave	M
Then on the waters fell	O
The shadow of man and earth and the heavens scrawled	P
With names as if each pebble and leaf would tell	O
The tale untellable And the Lord called	P
The seventh day forth and the glory of the Lord	N
	-
And now we see in the sun	I
The mountains standing clear in the third day	Q
Where they shall always stay	Q
And thence a river run	I
Threading clear cord of water all to all	R
The wooded hill and the cattle in the meadow	J
The tall wave breaking on the high sea wall	R
The people at evening walking	E
The crescent shadow	J
Of the light built bridge the hunter stalking	E
The flying quarry each in a different morning	E
The fish in the billow's heart the man with the net	S
The hungry swords crossed in the cross of warning	E
The lion set	S
High on the banner leaping into the sky	T
The seasons playing	E
Their game of sun and moon and east and west	U
The animal watching man and bird go by	T
The women praying	E
For the passing of this fragmentary day	Q
Into the day where all are gathered together	V
Things and their names in the storm's and the lightning's nest	U
The seventh great day and the clear eternal weather	V
