[…] This I paced and found it somewhat the shape of an egg, thus, some fifty paces at the longest and a pace or two over thirty at the broadest or beam, though not regular. […]

[…] Lock says in the former years the Egyptians have not lit their fires so, outside the cave, and knows not why they are so departed from their usual custom this last winter. His sheep, when first he came, seemed driven to lick the superficies where this fire had been, as if something there had tickled their animal appetites; and though none seemed to sicken for it, he had feared this sudden maggot in them and so barred them from it; yet said they would still occasion try to thrust through, for all of the abundance of sweet grass lying about them.

 This ustulated patch is some nine paces across. […]

I asked Lock whether this absence of grass was not a strange thing, to which he said yes, and he deemed the Egyptians had poisoned [potare, then, is to drink] it in the making of their salves and potions. […] My man truly observed it was more like earth at the bottom of a smelting-pit, though we saw no trace of metal or else besides. Nor, I think, is there utile ore known in this immediate vicinity. Nota, ‘tis found in abundance upon the Mendip Hill, toward Bristol . […] –Rich’d Pygge, attorney at law, from John Fowles’s A Maggot (1985)

“The beautiful, glittering name fell out of the sky like a steel blue feather. She watched it fall, turning and twisting like a slow falling arrow that cleaves the deep sky air beautifully. He was coming, as he always came, in moments of dead calm; when the wave rippled and the spotted leaves fell slowly over her foot in the autumn waters, and nothing moved between sky and sea. It was then that he came.” –Orlando, October 11, 1928

“For example, there is nothing equivalent to our word 'moon', but there is a verb that for us would be 'to moonrise' or 'to moon'. 'The moon rose over the river' would be 'Hlör u fang axaxaxas mlö' or, literally, 'Upward behind the lasting-flow it moonrose'. (Xul Solar translates this more succinctly as 'Upward, behind the onstreaming, it mooned.')” –Jorge Luis Borges’s “Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius”

Conjunction of mirrors in an argon stabilized ampoule, with fewer still, regained in pure metallic forms; instead, more dithering
Digitalized oversight into analog—Containing Klaproth’s basic treatment of zircon (1789), from heat treated clear-wine jacinth to blue starlite; birefringent as Tlön—
Disputed Dianthus caryophyllus, clove pink, and carnation, for carnis, color of flesh, buffeting air and odorant hinted sensillae—
Lacking the instrumentation to savor but some of the Caryophyllic links of betalains, so far efflorescing at lower wavelengths than anthocyanins, to match zirconium’s distribution in all the ingested cereals condensed
Into the vanes of jet engines and fuel core cladding, or modern signage known by the “Q” of Bodoni centered from the right—

From Didot’s imprint of La Henriade (1818) and Madonna’s twelfth, MDNA (23 March 2012), of le Jeune Fournier’s font, then rounded, musical notes (1762) migrating to the right

Giambattista Bodoni’s punches at Propaganda Fide, before directing his own press in Parma (1768); young growth and high light of its violets condensing
There—From an apothecarist’s care for crystalline drying, or an ink devil kerning a block of text, relive strontium (1793) and titanium (1795) that together; by in a process Verneuil inflamed the cardinal gems (1902), dither
In optical windows, and from each of their yellowed oxides a grained, but polished surface of starilian; its dispersive properties exceeding diamond—On the yellow leather back of enfolded Tlön,
One of the four isotopes of strontium; primed for the pyréolophore’s salt, blazes deep scarlet, identifies a Nile catchment by its incorporated bones tended by Khepri, the ascendant scarab shoving off the solar barque at the lion’s heart, Regulus, where the Sun overruns its banks—Signaling the returned pride, during its helical rise in September, and bearing the most efficient path set by sensillae;

A straight line, without any recognizable tarsi—Pare away at the mound, an eclipsed Sun, with captivating seeds of the tamarisk djed pillar, to wind in the entombed battery of amulets, sensillae
Of the lowliest beetle, where on most these towers of blood have turned numb; concessions to our compass points of Love—As organist of Bath, William Herschel’s survey for double stars above the March ecliptic on the Crab, Uranus (1781)—This dark sign containing the Gate of Man; the summer solstice occurring then between Gemini and Taurus, Cancer’s stellar crib, Praesaepe, was known as the manger for gamma (γ) Asellus borealis, the Northern and delta (δ) Asellus australis, the Southern donkeys—Directed right

From the Vatican mezzanine, from its copy of Medici Ariadne recollected by Giorgio de Chirico from Paris (1912), were the parameters of Tlön,

Enlarges, he watches anus and ovipositor animated with each breath, and this in no small way decides these coupled mannequins, and fugitive busts beyond their searching figures; so dissimilar, were her solitary legs, which span the arcades, and dither
The sound, and give it color, as Morandi’s vases in unchanging July—Premonitory sensillum;
Distracted momentarily from its celestial guides, which finds the balm of Gilead, and potent agonist of β-caryophyllene contained therein—Vauquelin’s red Siberian lead, chromium (1797); sampled as an impurity for emeralds; Klaproth sourced from lead ore beds (1798), and manufactured chrome yellow—Condensing
Midday, if embroidered, partitions of Château d'If; Dantés; before the priest undermined from the adjoining cell, abides the Red Tower (1913) nestled among farms minding the unconscious sacrifice of his complexion right 

Of the hole-in-the-wall, where a crawling spindle accomplishes in its molts the cycles of the Moon; turgid, in us, for the desire to act in tireless directions—Pacified, by the presence of a cricket sharing our homes, in the apparent dust storm of a broom, or oscillating in accumulations of Tlön—

Cerium, which was revealed independently by Hisinger and Berzelius, and by Klaproth (1803), from its oxide, resembling brimstone—With tinctures missing one-third of its constituent, the part of salt, or precipitately,

James Merrill’s coldly wishing surface (September 1951) of Dawn approaching the potential world sandwiched between Mars and Jupiter, Ceres, 6 March 2015; rather precipitously,

February’s blinking cryovolcano is portentous for an internal sea; Ceresian, for the cherry orchards that once framed Lake Lugano dithered

As Bodoni dazzles lower than 10-point, for somewhere to land—As Piazzi’s Ceres (1801); the asteroid, Hygeia, Annibale de Gasparis sighted, and Capocci christened from the Bourbon Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1849)—In spite of Tlön’s

Hostility to mirrors, recounts the July and October issues of the quarterly pictured by Aubrey Beardsley, as The Yellow Pages (1974), if to suggest the Romantic has become serialized—Overcoming the setting and the sitters’s opacity, the sensillae

Of Giorgio de Chirico’s ritrattos—Simultaneously, the considered trails in a radon cloud chamber, the flourishes of nevertheless gridded Romain du Roi (1692), and as Champfleury (1529) before, or de Chancourtois’s helix centered on tellurium (1862), for the eyes’s wrappings of gauze—Inhale this gas, the path adjourning Saturn and Neptune—Made by the cricket’s voice condensing

All the efforts of materializing the wild ass’s skin, in Japhet’s hands, offered a drink of fluoric acid (1831)—Acting on indigo oxygen the rightful

Oeillet Louis XV (2012) suffuses Oriza Legrand’s patio of the Louvre among the original eau d’orange (1720)—Precipitating the rightful potency embodied in orange carnelian of her liege, or in sardonyx, for the harems of Sardis, but steadied as Madame de Pompadour being taught by Jacques Guay cameo engraving arranging her stand-ins, to notice a hrön of a white carnation steeped in Revolutionary blood—

With sensillae, often detected only as they dive into a lamp, before a closed window, and Tlön of tellurium worked in fungal amino acids,

We have dithered; condensing all the anti-inflammatory bud and leaf oils marching thenceforth into a communal territory in danger of becoming even more universalized, for a mutability of oxides Klaproth found in the Uranian, until they are more formerly recognized; once more, and again—
