Der Doppelgänger

The moon shows me
my own form

One night, I was invited to a star party, on the Alps, on the french border. At about 5:00 am, the guy who invited me, pointed his Newtonian telescope to the point where the moon would have arisen. I looked inside and saw the image of the Moon, very clear. So I cried out, "here it is.!" But I did not saw the real moon, but its image indirectly reflected by the stratosphere. Two minutes later the actual moon rose, and I was dazzled. The phenomenon is called earthshine.

Angel and demon, at the same time. But Satan was not actualy an Angel?
