Ah, stern cold man, / How can you lie so relentless hard / While I wash you with weeping water! / Ah, face, carved hard and cold, / You have been like this, on your guard / Against me, since death began.
You masquerader! / How can you shame to act this part / Of unswerving indifference to me? / It is not you; why disguise yourself / Against me, to break my heart, / You evader?
