OverviewUpon the plain I saw him slain, Silvaticus Rex, King of men. By spear, pierced; By woman, betrayed, The hand of the one whom he loved most. Upon the plain I saw it raised, A mound of earth, tomb for a king. In memory made, in honor kept; A burial place, house of the dead. Upon the plain I saw them gather, Build a temple, a holy place. Stone and pitch, ochre paint, A space for the god, whom they worshipped. Tambour and sistrum, drum and horn; Celebration's frenzy, festival's gift. Opal, lapis, beryl, betyl; Gems and stones, pillars lifted. Dance! Sing! Upon the plain; Forget the man, the one you've slain. Symbols in clay, words of God; Sacred marks and secret rites. Upon the plain, I witnessed a sign; Thunder, lightning, Heaven's fire. I saw them live, watched them die; Babel's children, all confused.
