I have enchanted all of Nature
And forged each moment’s quality.
And what a horrifying freedom
I found in such a sorcery!
My constant guilt – with no beginning
Spread till all limit-zones were passed;
The body far away expanded,
And depths opened that were so vast.
Thell I called out to the Prime-Mover,
My challenge unto Heaven thrown;
The stars and planets gave the answer:
I made Nature myself, alone.
(Fyodor Sologub)
