matched it to this feeble hurdy-gurdyand listen to the same old tunecreak on and on in endless repetition.Is it appropriate that such an elderplay games that only children can enjoyin which a small spark, crammed into the mud,mimes its maker, not as faithful likeness,but only as distorted parody;freedom pursues fate, and all is devoidof meaning and intelligent accord.The Lord: Homage only, not censure, is my due.Lucifer:1 give you only what 1 can — my essence.(Points to the angels)This wretched crew here praises you enough,and rightly so, for it was youwho gave them birth, as light does to its shade;but 1 I live from all eternity.The Lord: Ha, insolent! were you not born of matter, too?Where was your realm, where was your might, before?Lucifer:I, too, might ask the same of you.The Lord: What here is bodied forth into existencehas lived deep in my mind, time without end.Lucifer:Among your thoughts did you not sense the voidthat was the obstacle to every beingand that compelled you to create?This obstacle was Lucifer,the primal spirit of negation.You overpowered me, for it's my fateincessantly to fail in all my struggles,but then, renewed in strength, to rise again.You created matter, 1 won full scope;side by side with life stands death,and side by side with happiness, dejection;by light, the shade, and doubt blights every hope.
I stand, you see, where you do — everywhere;should I, who know you so well, bow in homage?The Lord: Ha! seditious spirit, out of my sight!1 could annihilate you — but no! Banishedfrom every spiritual bond, fight onamong the dregs, a hated alien.And in your bleak and anguished lonelinesslet this one thought torment you endlessly;shake as you will your dust-forged manacles,your struggle with the lord is doomed to fail.Lucifer:The Lord(withscorn):Lucifer:No, not so fast; I'll not be lightly heavedaside, like some shoddy tool, now grown useless.It was together we created;I now demand my rightful share.Let it be as you wish. Look downupon the earth, upon the grove of Eden;there, in the middle, stand two slender trees;1 curse the both of them; now they are yours.A scanty, tight-fisted dole, oh great lord;but a bare foot of ground will do for me;for if negation once can plant its feetit will subvert your whole created world.(Sets out to leave)Chorus of Angels: Be banished from God's sight, forever damned.Hosanna to the Lord, giver of laws.
