Chapter 19
Emp’agatu said: When my people have progressed in the tongue; progressed in the lips; progressed in the throat; progressed in the nose, then I come in a chariot of fire and consume their libraries.
With a stealthy tread and silent whisper I say to men: Do not go back to the ancients, O my beloved, nor seal up your souls; so that Eolin may enter and give you light. Do you not know that words are merely idols and graven images?
But they will not hear, and the es that is in them cries out in bondage, and I send the burning flame and burn their books into ashes, for I will deliver them from the bondage of ancients.
