The measure of the fifth communion is an epoch of an unheard-of sky: ūrdhvam udetā arvāg astam etā — "it rises above and sets below": the sun of the fifth aeon stands up at the zenith and goes down at the nadir: a vertical day, light pouring from above downward — and the term twice as long as the northern one.
The cosmography of honey has used up its directions: east, south, west, north, the vertical: five epochs, each twice as long as the last: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 — thirty-one terms of the world-day: the knower's time is stretched to an almost-eternity. "Almost" — because even the vertical sun still moves: the last step, beyond movement itself, will be taken by the next khaṇḍa.
