35 36 DR. FAUST S DESCENT FROM HEAVEN II Straightforth with the Magical Seal I knocked at the musical gates Of Heaven. The angels grew pale, or swooned in the arms of their mates.
" I have sounded all chords in the harp of man's life," I said, '' It is I, Doctor Faust. Now give me your manna for bread." And they gave me their manna to eat, and drink, and I drank thereof.
But they tasted as ashes and stale in my mouth after the kisses of love.
So I spake up to God: " In your realm, O Lord, there... is nothing to do For a man such as I. Let me pass. T'were different if I could be you!
To play with omnipotence, curb lightnings, and summon new worlds at my will — Yet I stretch out no impious hand for your kingdom. I, too, have my fill.
Though the suns be your toy, of Love's breasts have I joy, though the prayer of the saints be your meat.
Have you loved Helen of Troy and the blonde Mar- guerite?
DR. FAUSTS DESCENT FROM HEAVEN 37 III Into Inferno I stalked to the stream where sulphur and brimstone well Through lonelinesses more deep than the Florentine's Frozen Hell.
