There are stars moving in other heavens,
wanting to help those of faith.

If you lift up your skirt you may catch one falling,
as they sometimes do.

All in this world is inseparable from us. Time's duty
is to prove that beyond a doubt. Once it does, nothing
in any hourglass will ever move again in a way you
would not want.

When you know your real status, no longer would you
covet or borrow in any manner. And all will then even
line up to pay you interest, envy thee, if you desire.

Someday wherever you sit will become a throne, and
the four elements your beautiful guards.

All your worries then, say goodbye. Moreover, they
will never have existed.
