A poem on Swedenborg for your Tuesday morning: Taller than the others, this man Walked among them, at a distance, Now and then calling the angels By their secret names. He would see That which earthly eyes do not see: The fierce geometry, the crystal Labyrinth of God and the sordid Milling of infernal delights. He knew that Glory and Hell too Are in your soul, with all their myths; He knew, like the Greek, that the days Of time are Eternity’s mirrors. In unadorned Latin he went on listing The unconditional Last Things. Emanuel Swedenborg by Jorge Luis Borges
