have I
become and
a
Yea-sayer:
and
therefore
strove I
long and
was a
striver,
that I
might one
day get my
hands free
for
blessing.
This,
however,
is my
blessing:
to stand
above
everything
as its own
heaven,
its round
roof, its
azure bell
and
eternal
security:
and
blessed is
he who
thus
blesseth!
For all
things are
baptized
at the
font of
eternity,
and beyond
good and
evil; good
and evil
themselves,
however,
are but
fugitive
