A black, E white, I red, U green, O blue: vowels, </CENTER>
<CENTER><DT>I shall tell, one day, of your mysterious origins: </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>A, black velvety jacket of brilliant flies </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>which buzz around cruel smells,
</CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>Gulfs of shadow; E, whiteness of vapours and of tents, </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>lances of proud glaciers, white kings, shivers of cow-parsley; </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>I, purples, spat blood, smile of beautiful lips </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>in anger or in the raptures of penitence;
</CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>U, waves, divine shudderings of viridian seas, </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>the peace of pastures dotted with animals, the peace of the furrows </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>which alchemy prints on broad studious foreheads;
</CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>O, sublime Trumpet full of strange piercing sounds, </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>silences crossed by [Worlds and by Angels]: </CENTER></DT>
<CENTER><DT>–O the Omega! the violet ray of [His] Eyes! </CENTER></DT>
