I've been thinking long and was confusing
What is there on the ground, the height of the Providence
Or blindness without a number, everything flows,
The Providence of heaven and the entire universe is not.
However, looking at the stars heavenly harmony,
Earth, seas and rivers the kindness and restrainest,
Premeno days, nights, phenomenon of the moon,
Acknowledged that divine power we are born.

There the fiery shafts tend
And you don't find the coast;
There is a fiery vortex spinning
Brushes many centuries;
There rocks, like water seethe,
Burning there is rain noise.

And argued very among themselves in the heat.
One asserted: the Earth spinning, the circle of the Sun goes;
The other is that the Sun a planet leads.

Tell me how you doubt about this reasoning?"
He gave this answer: "That Copernicus is right,

Who saw the simpleton of the chefs is
Which would spit the hearth around Zharkova?"

His face hides the day;
The field was covered with gloomy night;
Ascended the mountains the black shadow;
Rays from us leaned away;
Opened an abyss full of stars;
The stars are countless, the abyss bottom.
