1. God—there is no doubt of Him—remains veiled,

    Yet manifest; and each is drawn toward its own nature.

  2. The living are like their brothers in death, so think little

    Of warriors, though they lengthen their spears and sword tassels.

  3. The bitter colocynth does not know what cast its bitterness

    Into it; nor does honey know that it has become sweet.

  4. You asked me, and answering you proved beyond me;

    Whoever claims to know has lied.
