==Text==<br />
The writing is in Graecan, and reads:<br />
<br />
Man lay the Road on which shine All Constellations, the Golden Path 'tween the<br />
Copper Sun and the Silver Moon<br />
<br />
Man lay the Stone on which rest All Bodies, the Red Rock of the Black Fire of<br />
the White Mount.<br />
<br />
Man mark'd the Line 'tween which live All Days, the Grey Score 'round the<br />
Bright Days and the Dark Days.<br />
<br />
Man mark'd the Word 'tween which flow All Work, the Bold Law of the Pale Scroll<br />
and the the Ash Book. <br />
<br />
Lo, Cities rose, where Man lay and as Man mark'd.<br />
<br />
Man read the Law, the Word, and found His Way narrowed and hastened.<br />
<br />
Man cross'd the Score, the Line, and found His Way cut and stead'd.<br />
<br />
Man own'd the Rock, the Stone, and found His Way paved and cherished.<br />
<br />
Man walk'd the Path, the Road and found His Way freed and opened.<br />
<br />
Lo, Man flowed between Cities, where His Way was found.<br />
<br />
And on His Head He held a Fine Crown.<br />
<br />
And on His Back He bore a Red Cloak.<br />
<br />
And with His Feet He stepp'd with Soft Sandals.<br />
<br />
And with His Hand He brandish'd a Sharp Dagger.<br />
<br />
Lo, He carried Life and Struggle.<br />
<br />
And in His Grasp He kept the Way Home. <br />
<br />
And in His Gut he knew Fine Drink and Woman.<br />
<br />
And in His Heart He held the Sparrow's Song.<br />
<br />
And in His Eye He saw His Golden Path.<br />
<br />
Lo, He stepped 'tween Joy and Sorrow.<br />
<br />
And the Cities were His Home, and the Path was His Way, and the Dagger was His<br />
Tool, and His Domain was Man and Woman.<br />
