UAldous Huxley - Ukukhethwa kwamaqhekeza, amabinzana kunye nemibongo
Indawo yokulwa
- Esona siqhulo sikaThixo, ngokubhekiselele kuye, yayikukuba akakho. Yayingekho nje. Hayi uThixo okanye umtyholi. Kuba ukuba umtyholi ebekho, noThixo ebeya kubakho. Yonke into eyayikho yayiyinkumbulo yobudenge obuqinileyo, obulizothe, kwaye ngoku i-pugilism eyoyikekayo. Okokuqala ngumcimbi wenkunkuma kwaye emva koko i-farce. Kodwa, emazantsi, mhlawumbi lowo yayingumtyholi: umoya wenkunkuma. Kwaye uThixo? UThixo, kule meko, uya kuba ukungabikho kwemigqomo yenkunkuma.
- …ukuba ubuphethwe, ke, ndiyakuqinisekisa, eli hlabathi beliya kujongeka ngakumbi njengobukumkani bezulu kunokuba linjalo kulawulo lwethu lwangoku lobuKristu-ingqondo-yenzululwazi.

Kwaye ukwaneliseka ngayo yonke into ayinamtsalane womlo olungileyo wokulwa nelishwa, okanye umzobo wokulwa nesilingo okanye ngokuchasene nenkanuko ebulalayo okanye amathandabuzo. Ulonwabo aluze lube nobukhulu.

Isibuko
Ngokucothayo, ukukhanya kwenyanga kwakha kwadlula
umphuphi wesipili,
apho, ukuguqa, kunzulu kakhulu,
iimfihlo ezindala ezingalibalekiyo echwebeni
izinto ezimangalisayo ezingenakulibaleka.
Kodwa ngoku iintambo ezinothuli ziyadibana
ngesipili, lowo kube kanye
Ndibone iminwe esuse igolide
kwibunzi elingakhathaliyo;
neenzulu zimfanyekiswe yinyanga;
kwaye ndazilibala iimfihlelo zayo, engazange ixelwe.
Iingcango zetempile
Zininzi iingcango zomoya ezikhokelayo
kweyona ndawo ingcwele.
Ndazibona iingcango zetempile engcwele;
ngokuba uthixo wale ndawo nguThixo ngokwakhe.
Kwaye ezi zingcango awathi uThixo wazimisa
ababezizisa endlwini yabo: iwayini, ukwanga;
iingcinga ezinzulu ezibandayo, ulutsha ngaphandle kokuphumla,
kunye nokuzola, umthandazo kunye nomnqweno,
ibele lesithandwa nomama;
umlilo wesigwebo nomlilo wembongi.
Ke yena lowo unqula ezo ngcango eyedwa;
nilibale ingcwele engaphaya, niya kubona
ngequbuliso izithuba ziyavuleka,
etyhilayo, ingeyiyo itrone kaThixo eqaqambileyo;
kodwa ngumlilo wengqumbo neentlungu.
