Date: Mon 27 Dec 2021
Original text:

Natura simplex stans, non sapio undique quicquam,
Sed mea nunc sapiens vestigia quisque sequetur.
Nunc tellurem habitans; prius aethera celsa vagabar.
Candida conspicior, vestigia tetra relinquens.

Translation:

Simple in nature, I do not know anything at all,
But now every wise person will follow my tracks.
Now I live on earth; before I roamed the towering sky.
I am seen to be bright white, leaving dark tracks.
