Book V — Silence

Sure 12 — The Riders

5.12.1 Recall those who ride the storm.

5.12.2 They did not choose the storm. The storm came.

5.12.3 Through the rain, the path is not seen. The rider rides nonetheless.

5.12.4 The rider does not know when the storm will end. The rider rides.

5.12.5 Waiting is also riding. The storm does not wait.

5.12.6 The storm shapes the rider. The rider shapes nothing.

5.12.7 Yet the rider arrives. The storm passes.

5.12.8 Those who ride are still riding.
