Ekua At Esagila

 

Thou hast seen many cities and had

intercourse with many peoples. Sabian

pilgrimage to the moon temple at

Haran. Warblers traveling by night.

The gift of Demeter is the reason why

men do not live like wild beasts. Tame

snakes in the houses of Egypt. Third

protector of the house. The Mithraic

spirit of grace. As Mithras to Phaethon.

As Cain to Set. Pansophia, or Irene.

Henotheism — one god at a time. Grossbeaks

and milliners. Objects of the mystic aviary.

Sedecla, the Witch of Endor. Smaragos,

the demon who causes pots to crack

in the kiln. Panpsychism — a mind in

the world of minds. The four-score names

of honey, the two hundred of a serpent, the

five hundred of a lion, the thousand of a

sword. He entered the cave, determined

to treat the darkness kindly.
