Sol 6.1

  1. It was not enough for him that the subjects had become

    safe from everything that brings sorrow;

  2. he even forbade the imagining of an event

    that brings weeping, at which tears flow from the eyes.

  3. Wait—for you have made your kingdom a paradise

    for the hopeful believer and the unbeliever.

  4. Let them see the portrayal of others' misery,

    as a lesson drawn from every ruler in a land,

  5. so their souls may cherish your rule more jealously

    and cling more firmly to their steadfast allegiance to you.
