THE FATE THAT REDEEMS NOTHING, FOR ALL IS BEYOND SAVING

To PRC 

When I had you betrayed,

and turned all your dreams to dust,

in despair you foretold my fate:

"May you live a lonely life and

may you die alone."

In my heart I then knew

it would be true; all the years

before me I saw open desolate

and bleak, and so it is;

I live alone, and growing old,

know I will die a lonely death,

and long will I lie dead

before my corpse be found.
