There is nothing but divine movement in this world

[Guest guest]

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

The pawn

Always sits stunned,

Chained, unable to move

Beneath God's magnificent power.

It is essential for the heart's coronation

For the pawn to realize

There is nothing but divine movement

In this

World.
