Then I went to the ends of the earth towards the south, where I saw three gates open to the south, from which came forth dew, rain, and wind.
2From there I went to the ends of heaven towards the east, where I saw three heavenly gates open to the east, which had lesser gates within them. Through each of these lesser gates the stars of heaven passed on, and went towards the west by a path which was seen by them, and that at every time. 3 When I saw them, I praised, every time I praised the Lord of glory, who had made these great and splendid signs, that they might display the magnificence of his works to angels and to the souls of men, that they may glorify all his works and deeds, might see the working of his power, might glorify the great labour of his hands, and praise him for ever.
