No, for beyond, far, far is a Purity all-unobstructed!

Zeus was Zeus—not Man: wrecked by his weakness, I whirl.

Out of the wreck I rise—past Zeus to the Potency o'er him!

I—to have hailed him my friend! I—to have clasped her—my love!

Pallid birth of my pain,—where light, where light is, aspiring

Thither I rise, whilst thou—Zeus, keep the godship and sink!

JOCHANAN HAKKADOSH

"This now, this other story makes amends

And justifies our Mishna," quoth the Jew

Aforesaid. "Tell it, learnedest of friends!"
