1. The surest thing my eye has ever beheld,

    At the heart of reason and reckoning:

  2. And all people have agreed upon it,

    Without a doubt or misgiving.

  3. I have seen nothing surer, to my mind,

    In fortune, reason, and reckoning,

  4. Than the emergence of a living being into life,

    And the death of a living being, with no return.

Sol 5.6
