There are those who hope they are already dead under cover of a pall of silence,
There are those who once more dig the hard earth with their bleeding nails.
There are those who fall one upon another in the graves,
There are those who still look for plants and roots with stubborn hope,
There are those who begin horribly to dance, arm in arm with frightful madness;
And others, terrible to tell, already approach the corpses, unburied and awaiting burial.

O ye hostile thoughts of my suffering, avaunt, all of ye, upon this evening!
