Year of Seeds, The - Part 48
Answer me, Fear! Thou in the depths dost dwell,
In darkest depth; for light is dark to thee,
And noon concealeth the dread Mystery
Which men call nothingness, and fate, and hell.
Profoundest Fear! who, closing thy wide eyes,
Beholdest God! and two eternities!
And shriek'st. “The One! The sole Infallible!”
Brave Trembler! Thou, who seek'st, and fear'st to find,
The Cause Uncaus'd of mindless things and mind.
The Unapproach'd, Unsearchable, Alone!
If pain thou know'st, if weakness knows thee well,
And if thy weakness is unmeasur'd might,
Answer me! Why should helpless Death affright
The Lifter of the Veil of the Unknown?
In darkest depth; for light is dark to thee,
And noon concealeth the dread Mystery
Which men call nothingness, and fate, and hell.
Profoundest Fear! who, closing thy wide eyes,
Beholdest God! and two eternities!
And shriek'st. “The One! The sole Infallible!”
Brave Trembler! Thou, who seek'st, and fear'st to find,
The Cause Uncaus'd of mindless things and mind.
The Unapproach'd, Unsearchable, Alone!
If pain thou know'st, if weakness knows thee well,
And if thy weakness is unmeasur'd might,
Answer me! Why should helpless Death affright
The Lifter of the Veil of the Unknown?
