I have whirled with the earth at the dawning
When the sky was a vaporous flame
I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim

Where they roll in their horror
Unheeded
Without knowledge or lustre
Or name

I was old when the pharaohs first mounted
The jewel-decked throne by the Nile
I was old in those epochs uncounted
When I, and only I, was vile

And man, yet happy
And untainted
Dwelt in bliss on the far
Arctic isle

Through the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber
Past the abyss of night
I have lived over my lives without number
I have sounded all things with my sight
Driven to madness with fright

Oh, great was the sin of my spirit
And great is the reach of its doom
Not the pity of heaven can cheer it
Nor can respite be found in the tomb
Down the infinite aeons come beating
The wings of unmerciful gloom

I have haunted the tombs of the ages
I have flown on the pinions of fear
Where the smoke-belching Erebus rages
Where the jokulls loom snow-clad and drear
And in realms where the sun of the desert
consumes what it never can cheer

I am the nemesis, of all things
The hunter in the dark
Born from the night
I am nemesis
