“It was my disguise that opened your eyes, and my seeming to hate that woke your hearts.”
“And now you love me.”
“You love the swords that stroke you and the arrows that crave your breast. For it comforts you to be wounded and only when you drink of your own blood can you be intoxicated.”
“Like moths that seek destruction in the flame you gather daily in my garden ； and with faces uplifted and eyes enchanted you watch me tear the fabric of your days. And in whispers you say the one to the other,‘He sees with the light of God. He speaks like the prophets of old. He unveils our souls and unlocks our hearts, and like the eagle that knows the way of foxes he knows our ways.’”
