Chapter 6 morning

To find the way west pass the gate of punishment I run in a hurry Gentle kindness leads me to I sigh with regret see the sky break Swords and Spears of War melted in the tears of dew Diverge at high altitude sun free from fear with tears of gratitude climb to the sky To find the Western path, Right thro the Gates of Wrath I urge my way; Sweet Mercy leads me on With so repentant moan: I see the break of day. The war of swords & spears, Melted by dewy tears, Exhales ob high; The Sun is frees from fears, And with soft grateful tears Ascends the sky.
