         The 
          next fairy now gave her more of the golden-yellow potion; and as Mani 
          looked at the girl she saw her eyes shimmering as delicately as silver 
          - like the tinge of opalescent scales scintillating in so many colours. Mani felt that she floated, as if on gentle wings, up into the starry 
          firmament. At these words the joyous multiplicity of her thinking began to shimmer 
          white as milk. A deep silence spread in her mind. Being refreshed, her qualities and faculties now began to dance with 
          one another in the form of heavenly bodies and beings. All her imagination was covered with the light of her consciousness like with a shimmering haze of snow - as if the world of her thoughts was lying under the delicate blanket of a spring-like winter. Each time Mani noticed a trait of her character in her consciousness, 
          it blossomed into its full form and size like a twinkling star. Now the whole world seemed to her but a realization of her own world 
          of ideas; on the wings of great creative freedom she hastened through 
          the wintery realm of her fantasy. This experience of her pure cognitive power awakened in Mani an inebriating 
          feeling of joy, which she never wanted to miss again. When the realms of her enlivened consciousness calmed down again, and 
          when she returned with her experience from the joy-giving field of all 
          possibilities to the assembly, a soothing warmth radiated from the depth 
          of her being up to her refreshened mind.  |
