The ships withdrawing from view!
swiftly moving, self-concealing,
Their orbits swept away.
The stars which rise and set in their orbits.
The ships withdrawing from view!
Running in their orbits.
That run and hide.
Precisely running in their orbits.
The planets withdrawing into themselves,
Those that run and disappear -
the planets that run their course and set,
The stars which rise and set,
that hide,
The planets which in a retrograde motion do proceed,
that run their courses.
And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves.
Go straight, or hide;
which travel and hide,
that proceed, that withdraw from the scene,
that recede, move, and hide,
the runners, the sinkers,
moving swiftly, slinking into their dens!
That run their course and hide themselves,
The running "stars", the constant sinkers,
which move swiftly, and which hide themselves;
Go straight, or hide;
Those (planets) that continue their forward course (along their orbits) and then disappear.
the planets that hide,
