So I follow,

Between a river of steel and a river of bronze,

With ripples loud and tuneless as the clash

Of a million lutes; and come to the precipice

From which they fall, and make the mighty sound

Of a million swords that meet a million shields,

Or din of spears and armour in the wars

Of all the worlds and aeons: Far beneath,

They fall, through gulfs and cycles of the void,

And vanish like a stream of broken stars,
