And a white-hued one we lodged in a limpid vessel,
And a white-hued one—we entrusted it with clear wine,
which divulges what you concealed within and displays it.
Which reveals what you concealed within it and lays it bare.

As though it were hail, for which the air had fashioned
As though it were hail, for which the air fashioned
from the rain’s saliva, shrouds to shelter it.
Shelters from the rain’s spittle to protect it.
