He knows all that may be known,

His knowledge encompassing

What happens in the borders of the earths

To the highest of the heavens,

No atom's amount on earth or in heaven is beyond His knowledge,

Indeed,

He knows The crawling of the black ant,

On the soundless rock,

In the tenebrous night,

And is conscious of the movement of dust in the air,

He knows the secret and what is concealed further,

And is acquainted with

Mind occurrences,

Thought changes,

And concealed secrets,

With an Ancient, Eternal Knowledge,

Which has always been an Attribute to Him

In the ever-existing eternities,

Not with a renewing knowledge

Resulting, within His Identity,

From "locating" or "transfer" (of knowledge),
