I had to travel, and seek distraction from the spells gathered in my brain. At sea, which I loved as though it should cleanse me of stain, I watched the rise of the consoling cross. I had been damned by the rainbow. Happiness was my doom, my remorse, my worm: my life would always be too vast to be given up to strength and beauty. Happiness! Her tooth, sweet unto death, would warn me at cockcrow - ad matutinum, at the Christus venit -- in the most dismal cities: Oh seasons, Oh castles! What soul is flawless? I have made the magic study Of happiness, that none evades. Hail to it, each time The gallic rooster crows. Ah! I'll have no cares; It manages my life, This spell, now flesh and soul Has put an end to toil. Oh seasons, Oh castles! Its hour of flight, alas! Will be the hour of death. That is over. Now I know how to greet beauty. ~Arthur Rimbald the ending to Alchime du Verbe (The Alchemy of Words) which like Larme (Tear) and A Season In Hell is a journey in itself- id est trippin' -that boy had to be mind-altered. (IMHO)
