Omnium Exeunt In Mysterium Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDEThe stranger in my gates lo that am I | A |
And what my land of birth I do not know | B |
Nor yet the hidden land to which I go | B |
One may be lord of many ere he die | A |
And tell of many sorrows in one sigh | A |
But know himself he shall not nor his woe | B |
Nor to what sea the tears of wisdom flow | B |
Nor why one star is taken from the sky | A |
An urging is upon him evermore | C |
And though he bide his soul is wanderer | D |
Scanning the shadows with a sense of haste | E |
Where fade the tracks of all who went before | C |
A dim and solitary traveller | D |
On ways that end in evening and the waste | E |

ALFREDO FERNANDEZ VICENTE: Conocí a STERLING a partir del medioeval omnia exeunt in mysterium. El dicho de la época de las sombras que precedió al siglo de las luces y la razón.
Con él visitamos nuestro lado oscuro y conquistamos la humildad.
