Oh, sanctuaries of Sarmizegetusa!
Andesite, calcar, quadrilateral or circular,
they have so many round symbols,
and make me think not only of the Sun,
but also of the Full Moon and of the planets
(coquettish sisters and brothers
of the greatest fire globe.)

My love,
I would make a shield
for you
to stop the motion of the planets,
and to keep the Moon at apogee.
You would look at the shield,
but you would look more at
the Moon and planets.
