18. Who teacheth fear with an arrow, and bitter wisdom to thy young men of war;
19. Who boundeth pain by peace, and setteth a term unto love;
20. Who hath no truce with the day, and slayeth the dark with the sword of mighty mornings;
21. Who buildeth the house of life with colored beams, and the house of death without a door;
22. Who hath set harps in hell, and given pure gold for the winding sheet of kings;
23. By Whose breath are the Signs shaken; as a swarm of gnats are they troubled by the wind of His passing;
24. Who yoketh stars to His harrow, and the whirlwind to drag his plough on great waters.
25. Take counsel of Me; behold what shapes I have set as My servants.
26. The sun is a coal of My hearth, the moon an ember that I have quenched;
27. Shall not I make her a desolation, and a rock where devils worship?
