XI.

Changer of all things, yet immutable;

Before, and after all, the first, and last:

That moving all is yet immoveable;

Great without quantity, in whose forecast,

Things past are present, things to come are past;

Swift without motion, to whose open eye

The hearts of wicked men unbreasted lie;

At once absent, and present to them, far, and nigh.
