第11章 THE AWAKENING

I

When your beaming eye breaks Enraptured and trembling,Like straying string music That brooded,that slumbered,Bound to the lyre,Up through the veil Of holiest night,Then from above glitter Eternal stars Lovingly inwards.

II

Trembling,you sink With heaving breast,You see unending Eternal worlds Above you,below you,Unattainable,endless,Floating in dancetrains Of restless eternity;

An atom,you fall Through the Universe.

III

Your awakening Is an endless rising,Your rising An endless falling.

IV

When the rippling flame Of your soul strikes In its own depths,Back into the breast,There emerges unbounded,Uplifted by spirits,Borne by sweetswelling Magical tones,The secret of soul Rising out of the soul's Daemonic abyss.

V

Your sinking down Is an endless rising,Your endless rising Is with trembling lips

The Aetherreddened,Flaming,eternal Lovekiss of the Godhead.
