it has been cut off, we can never flourish more. Human beings, on the contrary, have a soul which lives forever, lives after the body has been turned to dust. It rises up through the clear, pure air beyon the glittering stars. ”
我们没有一个不灭的灵魂,我们从来得不到一个死后的生命。我们像那绿色的海草一样,只要割断了,就再也不会变成绿色了。
相反的,人类有一个灵魂,它永远都活着,即使身体化为尘土,它仍是活着的。它升向晴朗的天空,一直升向那些闪耀着的星星。
