“Over these things I could not see;
These were the things that bounded me;
And I could touch them with my hand,

And all at once things seemed so small
My breath came short, and scarce at all.”

The road winding above among the mountains
Which are mountains of rock without water
If there were water we could stop and drink …”

And no time
No shadows that move …”
