The Beloved has strung time into a necklace: each bead is a tear-drop

and a blazing sun.

In the Silence the count-down has begun and soon, what is to be done

will be done.

The only thing That will count now is love — the time is so short.

We have reached the end of the game, this time of seeker and sought.

A little time with the Beloved; and the next scene rehearsed.

Who were rich, who were poor, will take the stage with roles reversed.

For all this I do not care: the Beloved's glance

Has assured me that nothing will be left to chance.

Whatever my lot, I pray that he will implant his Name in my soul —

He, who ever was my fairest love, my way and goal.

Finally that bright Beloved said:

When I break my Silence and speak the Word of Words, men will realize that the supreme purpose of life is not in acquiring more knowledge about things which are passing, but in experiencing in themselves Truth which is eternal.
