One wise man's verdict outweighs all the fools'.
O woman-country! wooed not wed, Loved all the more by earth's male-lands, Laid to their hearts instead.
Ignorance is not innocence but sin.
A face to lose youth for, to occupy age With the dream of, meet death with.
For I say this is death and the sole death,- When a man's loss comes to him from his gain, Darkness from light, from knowledge ignorance, And lack of love from love made manifest.
Ambition is not what man does... but what man would do.
