The worms are chanting in unison as they are approaching Heaven's gate: "Out of the tomb, we bring Badroulbadour , Within our bellies, we her chariot." Badroulbadour was a princess that was married to Aladdin in a fairytale from 1001 Nights . The worms continue describing the transient nature of beauty: :"Here is an eye. And here are, one by one, :The lashes of that eye and its white lid. :Here is the cheek on which that lid decline, :And, finger after finger, here, the hand, :The genius of that cheek." |
