A description of the experience
Burton, Sir Richard - THE KASÎDAH 02 1
What know'st thou, man, of Life?
and yet, forever twixt womb and grave,
Thou pratest of the Coming Life,
of Heav'n and Hell thou fain must rave.
The world is old and thou art young;
the world is large and thou art small;
Cease, atom of a moment's span,
To hold thyself an All-in-All!
