Sous des jupons troues et sous de froids tissus
Ils rampent, flagelles par les bises iniques,
Fremissant
au fracas roulant des omnibus,
Et serrant sur leur flanc, ainsi que des reliques,
Un petit sac brode de fleurs ou de rebus;
Ils trottent, tout pareils a des marionnettes;
Se trainent, comme font les animaux blesses,
Ou dansent, sans vouloir danser, pauvres sonnettes
Ou se pend un Demon sans pitie!

But seeing Heaven’s decree is, man shall live but once, and that for too brief a while to do all he would, then O how long shall we go thus miserably toiling and moiling, and how long shall we lavish our life upon getting and making, in the
consuming
desire for more wealth and yet more?

" When he has com-
pletely gone to sleep," says on this point the
oldest and most
venerable
" script," " and come to
perfect rest, so that he sees no more any vision,
then, oh dear one, is he united with Being, he has
entered into his own self — encircled by the Self
with its absolute knowledge, he has no more any
consciousness of that which is without or of that
which is within.

Since, however, this is opposed
even to the usage of language, which distinguishes the pleasant from
the good, the unpleasant from the evil, and requires that good and
evil shall always be judged by reason, and, therefore, by concepts
which can be communicated to everyone, and not by mere sensation,
which is limited to individual [subjects] and their susceptibility;
and, since nevertheless, pleasure or pain cannot be connected with any
idea of an object a priori, the philosopher who thought himself
obliged to make a feeling of pleasure the foundation of his
practical judgements would call that good which is a means to the
pleasant, and evil, what is a cause of unpleasantness and pain; for
the judgement on the
relation
of means to ends certainly belongs to
reason.
