== Of the Making of the Worlds ==
When MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI had made the gods there were only the
gods, and They sat in the middle of Time, for there was as
much Time before them as behind them, which having no end
had neither a beginning. 
And Pegana was without heat or light or sound, save for
the drumming of Skarl; moreover Pegana was The Middle of
All, for there was below Pegana what there was above it, and
there lay before it that which lay beyond. 
Then said the gods, making the signs of the gods and
speaking with Their hands lest the silence of Pegana should
blush; then said the gods to one another, speaking with
Their hands; "Let Us make worlds to amuse Ourselves while
MANA rests. Let Us make worlds and Life and Death, and
colours in the sky; only let Us not break the silence upon
Pegana." 
Then raising Their hands, each god according to his sign,
They made the worlds and the suns, and put a light in the
houses of the sky. 
Then said the gods: "Let Us make one to seek, to seek and
never to find out concerning the wherefore of the making of
the gods." 
And They made by the lifting of Their hands, each god
according to his sign, the Bright One with the flaring tail
to seek from the end of the Worlds to the end of them again,
to return again after a hundred years. 
Man, when thou seest the comet, know that another seeketh
besides thee nor ever findeth out. 
Then said the gods, still speaking with Their hands: "Let
there be now a Watcher to regard." 
And They made the Moon, with his face wrinkled with many
mountains and worn with a thousand valleys, to regard with
pale eyes the games of the small gods, and to watch
throughout the resting time of MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI; to watch,
to regard all things, and be silent. 
Then said the gods: "Let Us make one to rest. One not to
move among the moving. One not to seek like the comet, nor
to go round like the worlds; to rest while MANA rests." 
And They made the Star of the Abiding and set it in the
North. 
Man, when thou seest the Star of the Abiding to the
North, know that one resteth as doth MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI, and
know that somewhere among the Worlds is rest. 
Lastly the gods said: "We have made worlds and suns, and
one to seek and another to regard, let Us now make one to
wonder." 
And They made Earth to wonder, each god by the uplifting
of his hand according to his sign. 
And Earth Was.
