1. All gain from the Exalted has empowered me
Never for other than the Exalted have I yielded

2. No shame upon one who lowers himself
In seeking knowledge though in rags be garbed

3. I stand distinct amongst people with wisdom
Clear dawn and gloom appear the same

4. Gems he owns, and pearls and precious stones
Like glass they differ only in their price

5. How many revered old men you see
With minds of girls and little boys

6. My life has passed and spared me naught
But justice, morals, and deprivation

7. So I will take revenge, O fate, however much
The gardens of passion's rapture heal
