274 THE STAR IN THE WEST For the old gods indeed go down to death , But the new gods arise from rottenness . 1 2 The pantheistic idea , which is so near akin to the agnostic , we find set in the fine prayer of Jephthah , and still more so in the final words of Tannhäuser : I say , then “ I ”; and yet it is not “ I ” Distinct , but “ I " incorporate in All.3 It further finds development in the last four lines of “ Ode to Poesy ”: No man, No petty god , but One who governs all , Slips the sun's leash , perceives the sparrow's fall , Too high for …

IV 1. Ocrystal heart! I the Serpent clasp Thee; I drive home mine head into the central core of Thee, O God my beloved. 2. Even as on the resounding wind-swept heights of Mitylene some god-like woman casts aside the lyre, and with her locks aflame as an aureole, plunges into the wet heart of the creation, so I,O Lord my God! 3. There is a beauty unspeakable in this heart of corrup- tion, where the flowers are aflame. 4. Ah me! but the thirst of Thy joy parches up this throat, so that I cannot sing. 5. I will make me a little boat of my tongue, …

THE KEY OF THE MYSTERIES glory of having proclaimed the unity of God among the idolatrous Arabs. There are pure and sublime pages in the Qur'an. In reading those pages, one may say with the children of Ishmael, “There is no other God but God, and Mohammed is his prophet.” There are three thrones in heaven for the three prophets of the nations; but, at the end of time, Mohammed will be replaced by Elias. The Mussulmans do not reproach the Christians; they insult them. They call them infidels and “giaours,” that is to say, dogs. We have nothing t…

THE TENTH DAY “ O God ! I could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams.” Hamlet. The mere result of all this was a dream.

I dreamt : my shrine was broken and my might Defiled, and all my Gods abased, in sight Of all blind Heaven exenterate and extreme. The foulest traitor of all womankind I ever knew, beca…

Right as usual, said the scholar. It’s a true story, though, in a way. I’ve seen the mask myself, and I believe it. THE GILT MASK IN Florence in the days of old there dwelt a craftsman pale and grim.
