The sky is an immortal tent built by the Sons of Los: And every space that a man views around his dwelling-place Standing on his own roof or in his garden on a mount Of twenty-five cubits in height, such space is his universe: And on its verge the sun rises and sets, the clouds bow To meet the flat earth and the sea in such an order`d space: The starry heavens reach no further, but here bend and set On all sides, and the two Poles turn on their valves of gold: And if he moves his dwelling-place, his heavens also move Where`er he goes, and all his neighbourhood bewail his loss. Such are the spaces called Earth and such its dimension. As to that false appearance which appears to the reasoner As of a globe rolling through voidness, it is a delusion of Ulro. The microscope knows not of this nor the telescope: they alter The ratio of the spectator`s organs, but leave objects untouch`d. For every space larger than a red globule of Man`s blood Is visionary, and is created by the Hammer of Los; And every space smaller than a globule of Man`s blood opens Into Eternity of which this vegetable Earth is but a shadow. The red globule is the unwearied sun by Los created To measure time and space to mortal men every morning.SourceThe script ran 0.001 seconds.
