Chapter 116:

The Brevet

<< Previous | Home | Next >>

1. HEAR YE my song! . . . I sing it on anvils! . . .

2. Ye are called into a goodly place, ye do put on fine raiment, ye do take up a goodly cup and quaff it to the bottom;

3. Ye do walk with the ungodly and they shall not famish you, neither bring about your downfall; ye shall dress in the gale and it shall not embarrass you.

4. Evil men shall put a price upon your heads; they shall stalk you to slay you; ye shall stride along chasms and the abyss shall entreat you!

5. I say, give no thought to these, for behold they are your portion.

6. The evil wind hath blown upon you and the harvest hath known blighting, even that harvest of manifest heart-hopes.

7. I say it is a treasure that hath been turned upon you; I say ye have been smitten, but in the smiting, risen!

8. There is naught to deter you; there is much to work you misery.

9. Behold the strong have a concordance in their hearts; they blow a strong breath into the trumpet of the Infinite; they cannot be cast down; they know not chance turnings.

10. They say, We are come to perform this thing; such is our errand, that is our mission; we do it mightily lest it follow that untruth pursue us in our destinies, that God's plan mock us, that angels turn aside and say, There is no honor in them; we but waste our strengths that these should be godlike.

11. My beloved, my beloved! I have called you to hold a candle to the nations; I have presented you your knighthood; I have given to you your charger.

12. Hath your plume known a dampening? I say the sun will raise it; verily the radiance will cause it to stand proudly.

13. Ye have given me a sufferance, that I should stand with you; ye have lifted me up, that ye were witness unto me.

14. I say, it is blessed that such matters are of moment. Hath the blade of the butcher wrought havoc amid the sheep? Ye are the witnesses: there are none to thwart you.

15. Behold the evil man ariseth presently and saith: The butchery is vomit, there is no honor in it, the blood hath fallen on us, it veileth our eyesight;

16. Let us give surcease unto Mammon for his clouds have enveloped us, yea even those shrouds that bind us in penury.

17. That which cometh, cometh; men shall run to and fro; the sun shall be darkened.

18. But they who have pleasant vision shall perform their own radiance; they shall lead through that night; they shall know their own pastures where the torment escheweth them.

19. Ever and again the radiant ones call forth: Who are the Chosen? Let us bind them with chains! . . . yea with those chain-links of golden satisfactions! . . . for we know our own kin that they deal not in blasphemies;

20. They demand a fair price, whereof man should be purchased, verily his soul which he bartereth to Mammon, but we say they give recompense, they avoid not the value.
