Chapter 221:
Behold, We Manifest Together
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. WITH a charge I charge you: Goodly rewards accrue unto those
who sow a harvest in a whirlwind, for its seed wafteth far and
strange landscapes know it, but those who seek out a selfish
corner to sow it with languor have only the bramble-patch of
petty whoredoms for their increase.
2. I tell you the harvest proclaimeth the husbandman. . . .
3. Doth the world have a tremble? What manner of man
would say, I perceive its tremblings, yet would I halt them by my
puny efforts directed against their treasures of chargings?
4. Can a gnat change the script on eternity's parchments?
And wouldst ye be gnats? I tell you there be gnats who draw
their broken wings across the pages, but is their trackage
writings?
5. There are days and nights of solemnness, there are vaults
of buried treasures, there are library shelves of opulence, there
are comings and goings, there is robbery on the highroads.
6. These things are manifest that man should know
cleverness; the Father hath ordered them as Caesar his
legions; these are His eschewments; those who take evil and
say it is their birthright, those who give a countenance to fear
and wear it in their dresses, verily as a garland that proclaimeth their
desirings.
7. Be not as these, beloved. Be as bright diadems set before
a kingdom. Be as the wisdom which bulgeth the forehead. Be
as the wren that looseth her lay that the world may perceive she
hath brooded her young.
8. I give you your eschewments. I say, Be ye righteous;
9. Touch not the adversary in the guise of his endeavor to
thwart you, tear not his garments lest their stench overcome
you;
10. Trust not the courier who cometh unto you saying,
I beseech you to give the foe his luxury in combat, for he
seeth your steel and would make it his own to his lecherous
rejoicings. . . . .
11. Hear ye my words! I attest them by a righteousness which
cometh in presently when the harp of man's progress hath been
played upon by tempests.
12. Many men come unto you, beseeching that ye lead them.
Harken unto them, I tell you, only if the times be ripe for the
employment of your wisdoms.
13. I say it again: a stench ariseth presently, it overcometh
those who make their grunt in beastliness; behold the wracked
world groaneth, it pincheth both its nostrils.
14. Pursue not that stench, lest your raiment offend you, lest
the thought of it sicken you even in memory.
15. I bid that ye do arise and lead, indeed, but not as those
couriers who fly before disaster, warning a populace of
wreckage in the whirlwind; that hath no rejoicings in it;
16. I bid that ye be couriers upon brighter steeds, that ye tell a
sweeter forecast.
17. Proclaim a calm, sure purpose of ultimate victory
transcendently maneuvered, making not speech abominable
that good may sing its psalmody, but making all speech
beauteous that beauty may walk radiantly.
18. I bid that ye carve my wisdom upon the granite cliffs of
prescience; I bid that ye chalk my poesy upon the summer
leaves of temperaments.
19. For behold the times are basalt, they build man a sure
foundation; behold the times are psalmody, they give man his
voice for praisings.
20. Have ye offended the Hosts of the Bright Ones? hath the
zephyrlike fallacy of impending want pursued you?
21. Both, both are calumnies, yet have they annoyed you?
22. I say your aims are just! Fear not that the cycle produceth
not its treasure of supply when that which hath its message to
the times proceedeth from the heart.
23. Logos! Logos! Logos! Let cheer be sent among you!
24. I manifest! I manifest! Ye manifest! Ye manifest! . . . .
behold we manifest together that those who seek us out behold
their anointment with enduring peace;
25. Yet I tell you that enduring peace cometh not from nations'
wrath subsided but from beauty-pots of Love that have
vermilion in them, painting a rose instead of a sword upon the
canvas of the Infinite.
26. Behold I charge you with a charge as men go forth to
contest with that Beast which would devour them.
27. Ye are shepherds who see their sheep go before them, not
as those vaunting, with lances in their conduct, who seek out
the boar that their valiance may subdue him, whose dogs bestir
the wolf-pack that their huntings may be savage.
28. Behold the times shall slay the boars of intellect, the sheep
shall divide and go around the wolves, leaving their carcasses
for the vulture-birds of sorrow.
29. It is goodly that ye stand in my name manifesting, in my
name perceiving, in my name ordering, in my name laboring, in
my name contesting;
30. It is better that ye do note the rigors of things imminent,
that the days have wisdoms in them, that these changings have
their auguries, saying not unto the adversary, We perceive that
ye are mighty, but declaring rather,
31. We obey the behest of One mightier than ourselves,
we do eternally His pleasure, we are servants at His banquet,
we receive Him unto us in secret and in secret He showeth us
the paths unto victories that hold in their rejoicings no wailed
lamentations.
32. I tell you, beloved, it is better to be those who do chew a
lean meal than be fattened with the promise that men's
blessings may be bought with the coins of foul mintings.
33. Hear ye my speech and make your protests only in this:
That the words of my mouth have a weakness to convey the
love of my heart, which abideth with you always. . . .
