‘Gilgamesh, why dost thou wander around? / Life, which thou seekest, thou canst not find. ' / _Epic of Gilgamesh._
Why wander round, Gilgamesh? / The sun that set to-night / Shall climb the sky to-morrow, / And bake the world with light. / Throughout undying ages / The sun shall set and rise / As it hath set and risen / From dim eternities.
