Titrate: Prints... (or before first day of creation...) At the =
beginning,
the ground was naked and round, Then the man decided that it was to =
even
turn on it. Aggravated by this incredible movement, it caught it its =
two
nimble hands. The ground surprised per such an amount of familiarity =
was
very moved by it. After some resistances it was given up, Vaincue by
powerful throttlings of the man. Then it forced to him to be punt and =
it was
punt, crushed, rolled... Later it dug it its fingers and it became =
hollow,
Encore later it raised it between its two hands and it became higher =
and
more beautiful, Then it compressed it to return it ventrue, and it =
became
ventrue and generous. With the end the man satisfied per as well =
docility
decided as it would not turn any more And the ground was immobilized, =
digs,
high and ventrue. Transformed by the hand of the man, the ground had =
become
the print its being and of its phantasms. Cooked and hardened by fire =
it
would offer immortality to him... The day according to, any forgotten
barrel, another creator placed to the orders and started again all the =
work.
The man became simple observer and the round and naked ground as before =
was
given to turn, but for eternity.=20

Au commencement, la terre =E9tait nue et ronde, Puis l'homme d=E9cida =
qu'elle
devait tourner sur elle m=EAme. Agac=E9 par ce mouvement hallucinant, =
il
l'attrapa de ses deux mains agiles. La terre surprise par tant de
familiarit=E9 en fut tr=E8s =E9mue. Apr=E8s quelques r=E9sistances elle =
s'abandonna,
Vaincue par les =E9tranglements puissants de l'homme. Alors il lui =
imposa
d'=EAtre plate et elle f=FBt plate, =E9cras=E9e, lamin=E9e... Plus tard =
il la creusa
de ses doigts et elle devint creuse, Encore plus tard il l'=E9leva =
entre ses
deux mains et elle devint plus haute et plus belle, Puis il la comprima =
pour
la rendre ventrue, et elle devint ventrue et g=E9n=E9reuse. A la fin =
l'homme
satisfait par tant de docilit=E9 d=E9cida qu'elle ne tournerait plus Et =
la terre
s'immobilisa, creuse, haute et ventrue. Transform=E9e par les main de =
l'homme,
La terre =E9tait devenue l'empreinte de son =EAtre et de ses fantasmes. =
Cuite et
durcie par le feu elle lui offrirait l'immortalit=E9... Le jour =
d'apr=E8s, tout
f=FBt oubli=E9, un autre cr=E9ateur passa au commandes et recommen=E7a =
tout
l'ouvrage. L'homme devint simple figurant et la terre ronde et nue =
comme
