No man at all going the earth's gait,
But age fares against him, his face paleth, Grey-haired he groaneth, knows gone
companions,
Lordly men are to earth o'ergiven,
Nor may he then the flesh-cover, whose
life ceaseth,
Nor eat the sweet nor feel the sorry,
Nor stir hand nor think in mid heart, And though he strew the grave with gold, His born brothers, their buried bodies Be an
unlikely
treasure hoard.

individualistic
and mystical texts and the later, more mani- festly social and liturgical Daoist sectarian traditions.
