I
should
like
to
tell
more
of
those
far
days
,
but
time
in
the
present
is
short
.
Soon
I
shall
pass
.
Yet
am
I
sorry
that
I
can
not
tell
more
of
those
early
drifts
,
when
there
was
crushage
of
peoples
,
or
descending
ice-sheets
,
or
migrations
of
meat
.
Also
,
I
should
like
to
tell
of
Mystery
.
For
always
were
we
curious
to
solve
the
secrets
of
life
,
death
,
and
decay
.
Unlike
the
other
animals
,
man
was
for
ever
gazing
at
the
stars
.
Many
gods
he
created
in
his
own
image
and
in
the
images
of
his
fancy
.
In
those
old
times
I
have
worshipped
the
sun
and
the
dark
.
I
have
worshipped
the
husked
grain
as
the
parent
of
life
.
I
have
worshipped
Sar
,
the
Corn
Goddess
.
And
I
have
worshipped
sea
gods
,
and
river
gods
,
and
fish
gods
.
Yes
,
and
I
remember
Ishtar
ere
she
was
stolen
from
us
by
the
Babylonians
,
and
Ea
,
too
,
was
ours
,
supreme
in
the
Under
World
,
who
enabled
Ishtar
to
conquer
death
.
Mitra
,
likewise
,
was
a
good
old
Aryan
god
,
ere
he
was
filched
from
us
or
we
discarded
him
.
And
I
remember
,
on
a
time
,
long
after
the
drift
when
we
brought
the
barley
into
India
,
that
I
came
down
into
India
,
a
horse-trader
,
with
many
servants
and
a
long
caravan
at
my
back
,
and
that
at
that
time
they
were
worshipping
Bodhisatwa
.
Truly
,
the
worships
of
the
Mystery
wandered
as
did
men
,
and
between
filchings
and
borrowings
the
gods
had
as
vagabond
a
time
of
it
as
did
we
.
As
the
Sumerians
took
the
loan
of
Shamashnapishtin
from
us
,
so
did
the
Sons
of
Shem
take
him
from
the
Sumerians
and
call
him
Noah
.
Why
,
I
smile
me
to-day
,
Darrell
Standing
,
in
Murderers
'
Row
,
in
that
I
was
found
guilty
and
awarded
death
by
twelve
jurymen
staunch
and
true
.
Twelve
has
ever
been
a
magic
number
of
the
Mystery
.
Nor
did
it
originate
with
the
twelve
tribes
of
Israel
.
Star-gazers
before
them
had
placed
the
twelve
signs
of
the
Zodiac
in
the
sky
.
And
I
remember
me
,
when
I
was
of
the
Assir
,
and
of
the
Vanir
,
that
Odin
sat
in
judgment
over
men
in
the
court
of
the
twelve
gods
,
and
that
their
names
were
Thor
,
Baldur
,
Niord
,
Frey
,
Tyr
,
Bregi
,
Heimdal
,
Hoder
,
Vidar
,
Ull
,
Forseti
,
and
Loki
.
Even
our
Valkyries
were
stolen
from
us
and
made
into
angels
,
and
the
wings
of
the
Valkyries
'
horses
became
attached
to
the
shoulders
of
the
angels
.
And
our
Helheim
of
that
day
of
ice
and
frost
has
become
the
hell
of
to-day
,
which
is
so
hot
an
abode
that
the
blood
boils
in
one
's
veins
,
while
with
us
,
in
our
Helheim
,
the
place
was
so
cold
as
to
freeze
the
marrow
inside
the
bones
.
And
the
very
sky
,
that
we
dreamed
enduring
,
eternal
,
has
drifted
and
veered
,
so
that
we
find
to-day
the
scorpion
in
the
place
where
of
old
we
knew
the
goat
,
and
the
archer
in
the
place
of
the
crab
.
Worships
and
worships
!
Ever
the
pursuit
of
the
Mystery
!
I
remember
the
lame
god
of
the
Greeks
,
the
master-smith
.
But
their
vulcan
was
the
Germanic
Wieland
,
the
master-smith
captured
and
hamstrung
lame
of
a
leg
by
Nidung
,
the
kind
of
the
Nids
.
But
before
that
he
was
our
master-smith
,
our
forger
and
hammerer
,
whom
we
named
Il-marinen
.
And
him
we
begat
of
our
fancy
,
giving
him
the
bearded
sun-god
for
father
,
and
nursing
him
by
the
stars
of
the
bear
.
For
,
he
,
Vulcan
,
or
Wieland
,
or
Il-marinen
,
was
born
under
the
pine
tree
,
from
the
hair
of
the
wolf
,
and
was
called
also
the
bear-father
ere
ever
the
Germans
and
Greeks
purloined
and
worshipped
him
.
In
that
day
we
called
ourselves
the
Sons
of
the
Bear
and
the
Sons
of
the
Wolf
,
and
the
bear
and
the
wolf
were
our
totems
.
That
was
before
our
drift
south
on
which
we
joined
with
the
Sons
of
the
Tree-Grove
and
taught
them
our
totems
and
tales
.
