7 All things are murderous
When you come to your Time
8 Long did your every gain
Come at hardship's price
9 Disaster deafens you
To questions that I cry
10 I must steel myself for you
Will never again reply
11 Would that my heart could face
Your death for a moment's time
12 Would that the Fates had spared
Your life instead of mine
The original:
طافَ يَبغي نَجْوَةً مَن هَلَاكٍ فهَلَك
لَيتَ شِعْري ضَلَّةً أيّ شيءٍ قَتَلَك
أَمريضٌ لم تُعَدْ أَم عدوٌّ خَتَلَك

Bowlby - Attachment |

But among the English 'tis otherwise: where, by humour
is meant some extravagant habit, passion, or affection, particular
(as I said before) to some one person, by the oddness of which, he is
immediately
distinguished
from the rest of men; which being lively and
naturally represented, most frequently begets that malicious pleasure
in the audience which is testified by laughter; as all things which are
deviations from customs are ever the aptest to produce it: though by
the way this laughter is only accidental, as the person represented is
fantastic or bizarre; but pleasure is essential to it, as the imitation
of what is natural.

There is shadow under this red rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),
And I will show you
something
different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

stands, pointing upwards, under a glass-case, looking like a mysterious
