Vigils - Lyrics - Sabaoth
The name of God in Judaism used most often in the Hebrew Bible is the four-letter name ×××× , also known as the Tetragrammaton. El , Elohim , El Shaddai , Adonai , Elyon and Avinu are regarded by many religious Jews not as names, but as epithets or titles highlighting different aspects and 'roles' of God.

The lamps and the rugs
Of the vigil make the noise
Of waves in the night
Along the hull and around the steerage…
The lamps and the rugs…
The sea of the vigil, like Emily's ***
The hangings, halfway up…
Where dart the vigil doves
The plaque of the black hearth
Real suns of seashores
¡Ah Magic wells!
Only sight of dawn, this time.
The sea of the vigil
Where dart the vigil doves
