And at last came from within Egypt
The strange Dark man before whom the fellás bowed;
Silent, stark, enigmatically haughty
And wrapped in red cloth like the flames of the setting sun.
The masses crowded around him, eager for his orders,
But when they left they could not repeat what they had heard;
As the terrifying news spread through the nations
That the wild beasts followed by licking his hands.
Soon a pernicious birth began at sea;
Forgotten lands with golden needles covered with algae;
The ground opened and furious auroras fell
On the quivering citadels of men.
So, crushing what I had molded by play,
The idiotic Chaos swept the dust from the Earth.
