Do not what thou not wilt Lest thine heart be smite with guilt Betray not thy moral code Lest thou darken thy beautiful abode

Thy truth shall set thou free
Though thy truth be not easy to see In thine heart before thy mind The truth thou seek is there to find

Know ye now there be a cost None walk in truth and don't get lost For even thy kin may go away Lest they accept the truths you do say

But modest in truth is the price For what thou pay for is everlasting life The power of Good will thou gain And with it the power to walk without pain

But temptation thou must first defeat Walk thy path in life with thine own feet For thy path cannot ever be thine own Until thou stop reaping what thou hast not sown

Let your morals be to ye a guide From thyself dare not let a truth hide Of great power ye may be worthy If only, if only, thou truly were thee
The above poem, titled
The Secret
and sometimes The Key of Keys, was written by William Wisely (a known pseudonym for a very prolific, eighth-century anonymous poet and musician) in 722 A.O. The poem is engraved on the wall in the main hall of the University of Theological Studies in Agamar.
