Upon This Unprofitable Throne |
| Absolute emptiness |
| No colour no form no substance |
| It is form me |
| That all this desolation proceeds |
| So it has been ever |
| So must it ever be |
| From me pour down the fires of life continually upon the earth from me flow |
| down the river of water oil and me |
| Therefor am I lonely and horrible |
| Upon this unprofitable throne |
| I am the who was before the beginning |
| And in my desolation I cried aloud saying |
| Let me behold the countenance in the concave of the abyss |
| It was black and empty and distorted that was (once) invisible and pure |
| So it has been ever |
| So must I ever be |
| From me comes forth the wind that bears the seed of all upon it’s bosom |
| From me comes forth the earth in her unspeakable variety |
| All comes from me naught comes to me |
| I am lonely and horrible upon his throne |
