The Immortal's Boon to Death³²

(December 9th, 1950)

```

Death:

"I am Thy lifeless child

With ignorance dark and wild.

Father, my brother life

Ever dislikes my fife.

He dwells within Thy Heart

To pierce my pride with his dart.

O change my fruitless fate,

And write the immortal Date

Upon the brow of the earth.

Father, give me true birth."

The Immortal:

"Thy bosom's mourning sore,

My child, shall last no more.

Within Thy naked night

I stand with my footsteps' light.

I give you life, O Death!

My Bounty's ceaseless Breath

Shall flow across the soil.

I hush all time-turmoil.

My Truth's supremacy

Wills Immortality."

```
