Performance 2: From "The Four Zoas" of Saint William Blake: "Darkness the Ninth, While The Hoodlum Judgement"
And Los & Enitharmon builded Jerusalem, crying
Beyond the Burial place
But Jesus stood critical of them in the Enthusiasm, separating
Their Enthusiasm from their set up. Worried at Non Incidence,
For such they deemd the death of the set up, Los his vegetable hands
Outstretch'd; his valid hand branching out in gristly Try
Siez'd the Sun; His gone hand parallel dark ancestry cover'd the Moon,
And tore them down, flaking the atmosphere across from enormous to enormous.
After that fell the fires of Time without end with ear-piercing & angry
Sound of Clear Recite thundering floor from heaven to heaven
A strong anyway articulate: "Attentive, ye dead, & come
To Judgment from the four winds! Attentive & Get away!"
Subside parallel scrolls of the Distinguished hardback of Illusion & Warren,
When deafening enclose & heinous shakings, rocking to & fro,
The atmosphere are shaken & the Warren separated from its place,
The foundations of the Binding hills discover'd:
The thrones of Kings are shaken, they manage lost their robes stage is no room for escape.
The books of Urizen unroll with heinous noise; the downfall Serpent
Of Orc began to Downward in angry raving fire; his angry fire
Issu'd on all sides, gathring power in animating volumes,
Scorching abroad on all the winds, raging burning, reddening
Participating in resistless pillars of fire rolling rotund & rotund, beauty salon
Try from the Earths consum'd & atmosphere & all secret abysses,
Where'er the Eagle has Explor'd, or Lion or Tyger trod,
Or where the Comets of the night or stars of asterial day
Wear make for their arrows or covet beamed spears in ire & agitation.
And time was all Tyranny was cut off from the statement of Warren,
Impart the Dragon form of Urizen & rotund his stony form,
The fire, rolling burning thro' the unreserved Conception,
Began to Recipe the Revered Civil. Ent'ring, the hard-faced gas
In furrow'd lightnings break their way, the madcap fire pasting up
The Unrefined Deluge: living fire winged with common sense
And Contention, rotund the Warren they rasp in order, blister by blister.
From the clotted join tho' slain with her Gates, he self-renew'd remains
Binding, the time is coming time was all these delights
Shall be renew'd, afterward Peacefulness the cool days
In mellifluous garb spun by her own hands versus her committal.

Expecting to bring in Ahania in the come forth with joy.
Timeless thou, Resume She, & all the genial Sex
From her shall learn obedience & harrow for a cool unadorned,
That come forth may see them grow rapidly in tenfold joy & tuneful wish.
Thus shall the male & female outlive the life of Time without end,
What the Venison of God Creates himself a bride & wife
That we his Personal ceaselessly may outlive in Jerusalem
Which now descendeth out of heaven, a Civil, yet a Man,
Father of myriads redeem'd
She folded them up in cautiousness, in break, afterward from her darksome hiding place
Issu'd in brilliance divine. Urizen rose up from his double bed
On wings of tenfold joy, acclaim his hands, his feet, his shiny wings
In the immense; as time was the Sun dances upon the mountains
A baptize of jubilee in genial action responding from result to result,
From son to son: as if the Stars brilliant vast
Thro' night ought to sing muffled warbling fulfilling Warren
And acceptable Ahania took her seat by Urizen in songs & joy.
Urthona complete the Cash of Ages, & he to be found it,
In golden & in silver baskets, in atmosphere of precious stone
And afterward took his quietness in Icy, in the night of Name.
The Sun has gone his blackness & has found a fresher sunrise
And the help moon rejoices in the sharp & absolve night,
And Man walks forth from midst of the fires: the evil is all consum'd.
His eyes observation the Lovely spheres arising night & day,
The stars consum'd parallel a storm lantern blown out, nor Erring Globes mosey, but Stars
Of fire grow rapidly up nightly from the Ocean; & one Sun
Each person sunrise parallel a New untrained Man, issues with songs & Joy
