[Cleopatra by H. Rider Haggard]@TWC D-Link bookCleopatra CHAPTER VI 25/30
I am in thee and thou art in Me, O Harmachis.
That which bade thee be bade Me also be.
Therefore, though I am great and thou art little, have no fear.
For we are bound together by the common bond of life--that life which flows through suns and stars and spaces, through Spirits and the souls of men, welding all Nature to a whole that, changing ever, is yet eternally the same." I bowed my head--I could not speak, for I was afraid. "Faithfully hast thou served Me, O my son," went on the low sweet Voice; "greatly thou hast longed to be brought face to face with Me here in Amenti; and greatly hast thou dared to accomplish thy desire.
