Vac (Speech)

G. Holst

I, the queen of all,

First of those that mankind worship,

Worthy of all praise,

I proclaim aloud my wisdom.

Hearken unto me,

My word is true:

Unto God and Man

I bring blessing,

Pouring forth my wealth,

Making wise the man I cherish.

Through me each one lives,

Each one breathes and sees and hearkens.

All unite in me,

I alone sustain creation,

Compassing the earth

I reach t'ward heav'n.

In the water's depth

I have my dwelling,

On the summit of the universe

I bring forth the Father.

Beyond the earth and sky

I reign in my mystic grandeur.
