Sol 6.1

  1. I hate the race of the Slavs,

    By nature, by custom, and by religion.

  2. If I wished, I would incite the peoples of Asia,

    So they would revolt against Russia's troops,

  3. As the nation of the Thames desires;

    And that is not difficult for me.

  4. But politically, I do not show

    The Russians, in this war, anything but goodwill.

  5. So the world may know that I am keen

    To please my neighbor, and do not take advantage.

  6. And I forgive the sinner's sins,

    If he turns from his blameworthy ways,

  7. Just as I ordered the Indian Muslims

    To support the nation of the Thames.

  8. And I do not know: am I harming myself

    By today's deed, as by yesterday's?

  9. Or is kindness remembered by my neighbor,

    And are selflessness and favoring others praised?

  10. Or do I flee from Gog

    Only to be engulfed by the harm of Magog?

  11. The barrier has been opened; with what power

    Can I restore it, and with what might?
