I. SONG AT THE BEGINNING
8. For what good is this earth? Truly there is another
life in the hereafter. There may I go, there the sweet
birds sing, there may I learn to know those good
flowers, those sweet flowers, those delicious ones,
which alone pleasurably, sweetly intoxicate, which
alone pleasurably, sweetly intoxicate.
