"75: O CHILDREN OF NEGLIGENCE! Set not your affections on mortal sovereignty..."

| 1 |
O CHILDREN OF NEGLIGENCE! Set not your affections on mortal sovereignty
and rejoice not therein. Ye are even as the unwary
bird that with full confidence warbleth
upon the bough; till of a sudden the fowler
Death throws it upon the dust, and the melody,
the form and the color are gone, leaving
not a trace. Wherefore take heed, O bondslaves
of desire!
