Another Lord of the Old Ones,

Preferring the depths of the ocean.

Mighty Cthulhu in R'lyeh,

Near ancient Cathay.

Dagon inhabiting a deep chasm,

On the sea-floor, which is unknown.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1avND12a0

He is known as the Kraken,

By others the Leviathan.

He sleeps and dreams,

Not imprisoned as Cthulhu.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82dAxeYu7M

The waters protect Him

From the poison of the stars.

At time He wakes;

Traversing the sea-depths.

Visiting His children

Just like Flexible.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEw7XraiGC

He can approach the shore,

But no further; stars repelling Him.

Shallows He is able to endure,

Afterwards retreating to the depths.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOGuVJ0mvF

The Deep Ones His eyes into the Sea,

And men His hands upon the land.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHTsKzeMXV

Vast is His body, silvery scaled.

His hands as those of a man

But longer and webbed between,

Same as His feet.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5OJ7QQIIO

His head as the head of a dolphin,

Joining to His body without a neck.

In His domed forehead, is set a single eye

Greater than the round shield of a warrior

Being devoid of a lid it never shuts,

Even when He is asleep...

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP68mtC0CG

Emerging into the shallows

Walking upright and bent forward

With His long arms dragging into the sea.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5bzTFT98Z

His voice is deeper than the largest bell

And may be heard for leagues,

Which is broad and set low on His head.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSJysqJHib

His body being translucent,

Passing the light of the Moon;

As through a cloudy crystal,

For He ventures under the Moon,

Never under the light of the Sun.

292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZq9cbZtM3

Subject neither to age or decay,

Dagon is evermore deathless.

Dagon, Lord of the Sea!
