1. You see dawn efface the darkness of the grave,

    and a reviver born of warmth break death’s cold.

  2. Is there no caller to mourn a soul and raise it,

    then lay it low? Say to her: “Fate—I do not know.”

  3. When, one day, the earth’s belly closes around the young man,

    does reason step beyond Death, or is it struck down?

  4. And how did his far-stretching light disappear,

    when the whole earth had grown too narrow for him?
