GR translation: being routed now past points which may arc through the silence

[Mike Jing]

Metaphorically or otherwise, I feel a strong case can be made, since a

Doesn’t that imply a switching-path of some kind?

Also, is the verb "arc" here transitive, with "an imperfect, a human light"
as its object?
