| I am the first and the last
|
| I am the honored one and the scorned one
|
| I am the whore and the holy one
|
| I am the wife and the virgin
|
| I am the mother and the daughter
|
| I am the members of my mother
|
| I am the barren one and many are her sons
|
| I am she whose wedding is great and I have not taken a husband
|
| I am the midwife and she who does not bear
|
| I am the solace of my labor pains
|
| I am the bride and the bridegroom and it is my husband who begot me
|
| I am the mother of my father and the sister of my husband and he is my offspring
|
| I am the slave of him who prepared me
|
| I am the ruler of my offspring
|
| But he is the one who begot me before the time on a birthday
|
| And he is my offspring in due time and my power is from him
|
| I am the staff of his power in his youth and he is the rod of my old age
|
| And whatever he wills happens to me
|
| I am the silence that is incomprehensible and the idea
|
| Whose remembrance is frequent
|
| I am the voice whose sound is manifold and the word whose appearance is multiple
|
| For i am knowledge and ignorance
|
| I am shame and boldness
|
| I am shameless I am ashamed
|
| I am strength and I am fear
|
| I am war |
