“But now the Light supreme is far away: Our conscious life obeys the inconscience’ laws; To ignorant purposes and blind desires Our hearts are moved by an ambiguous force; Even our mind’s conquests wear a battered crown. A slowly changing order binds our will. This is our doom until our souls are free. 02.05_043:025-027”
