“You have seen what Eblis the accursed has seen, when he said “I am of fire, while Adam is of clay.” Cover up the Eblis-like eye for just a moment; how long will you see just the form? How long, indeed, how long? Alas for that eye that’s blind and bruised! Within it the sun seemed like an atom Of an Adam who had no like. He saw nothing but a lump of clay. — III 2758–9”
