His word so spurred me that I forced myself And clambered on still close behind my Guide Until my feet were on that girdling shelf.
Here we sat down and turned our faces towards The East, from which point we had made ascent (For looking back on toil some rest affords) ; And on the low shore first mine eyes I bent, Then raised them sunward, wondering as I gazed How his light smote us from the left. While thus I stared, he marked how I beheld amazed Day's chariot entering 'twixt the North and us....
