STRAY BIRDS 43 fish in the water is silent, the animal on the earth is noisy, the bird in the air is singing.

But Man has in him the silence of the sea, the noise of the earth and the music of the air.

44 world rushes on over the strings of the lingering heart making the music of sadness.

45 has made his weapons his gods.

When his weapons win he is defeated himself.

46 finds himself by creating. [17]
