Skarl

Of Skarl the Drummer

When MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI had made the gods, and Skarl

Skarl made a drum, and began to beat upon it that he might drum forever

Some say that the Worlds and the Suns are but the echoes of the drumming of Skarl

And others say that they be dreams that arise in the mind of MANA

Because of the drumming of Skarl

As one may dream whose rest is troubled by sound of song

But none knoweth

For who hath heard the voice of MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI

Or who hath seen his drummer

Whether the season be winter or whether it be summer
