HEN Almitra spoke again and said, And
what of Marriage, master?
And he answered saying:
You were born together, and together you
shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white
wings of death scatter your days.
Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory OI
God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
3
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your
souls.
Fill each other’s cup but drink not
