Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka |
|
Nowadays, when suffering is always trotted out
as the first argument against existence, as its
most sinister query, it is well to remember the
times when men judged on converse principles
because they could not dispense with the infliction
of suffering, and saw therein a magic of the first
order, a
veritable
bait of seduction to life.

I'll sing to amuse you by night and by day,
And be unco merry when you are but gay;
When you with your
bagpipes
are ready to play,
My voice shall be ready to carol away
With Sandy, and Sawney, and Jockey 45
With Sawney, and Jarvie, and Jockey.

This may not seem a very serious matter, but it is serious in this respect, that people who have read only the traditional English version of the Letters must have formed a wholly different conception of the

of the lovers from theirs who have studied, however casually, the Latin text.

"
XLV
Forward they rushed to execute his word,
But hard and
dangerous
that emprise they found,
For none of Raymond's men forsook their lord,
But to their guide's defence they flocked round,
Thence fury fights, hence pity draws the sword,
Nor strive they for vile cause or on light ground,
The life and freedom of that champion brave,
Those spoil, these would preserve, those kill, these save.

Oppressed by thee, the son of genius, whose ill-starred ambition
plants him at the tables of the

suffering silence, his remark neglected, and his person despised,
while shallow greatness in his idiot attempts at wit, shall meet with
countenance and applause.

J'aurais dû
reconnaître ces phrases dans le langage que m'avait tenu Albertine, le
jour de mon départ de Balbec, mais pour interpréter ce langage
j'aurais dû me souvenir alors de deux traits particuliers du caractère
d'Albertine qui me revenaient maintenant à l'esprit, l'un pour me
consoler, l'autre pour me désoler, car nous
trouvons
de tout dans notre
mémoire; elle est une espèce de pharmacie, de laboratoire de chimie,
où on met au hasard la main tantôt sur une drogue calmante, tantôt
sur un poison dangereux.
