Letter of Jeremiah 60

Also lightning is widely seen when it flashes and draws attention. The wind also blows in every land.
For sun and moon and stars are bright, and when sent to do a service, they are obedient.
So also the lightning when it flashes is widely seen, and the wind likewise blows in every land.
For sun and moon and stars, shining and sent forth for service, are obedient.
Forsooth the sun, and moon, and stars, when they be bright [or when they be shining], and sent out to profits, obey.
