chaos

before the seas and land had been created, before the sky that covers everything, nature displayed a single aspect only throughout the cosmos; chaos was its name, a shapeless, unwrought mass of inert bulk and nothing more, with the discordant seeds of disconnected elements all heaped together in anarchic disarray.
