The valley spirit dies not, aye the same;
The female mystery thus do we name.
Its gate, from which at first they issued forth,
Is called the root from which grew heaven and earth.
Long and unbroken does its power remain,
Used gently, and without the touch of pain.
|
"The valley spirit not expires,
Mysterious woman ’tis called by the sires.
The mysterious woman's door, to boot,
Is called of heaven and earth the root.
Forever and aye it seems to endure
And its use is without effort sure." |
The Spirit of the perennial spring is said to be immortal, she is called the
Mysterious One. The Mysterious One is typical of the
source of heaven and earth. It is continually and endlessly
issuing and without effort. |
