In the East however was
the work of the Gods of other sort, for there was a great arch made, and 'tis said, 'tis
all of shining gold and barred with silver gates, yet few have beheld it even of the Gods
for the wealth glowing vapours that are often swathed about it.
So it comes that ever now, as the Ship
of the Moon leaves his haven in the East and his gates of pearl, Ulmo draws the galleon of
the Sun before the Door of the Night.
