to the tyrants slowly crossing through the town | longing in envy to be seen in the crowd | and to narrate their parenthood. | Better to look on in serenity | the noise of triumph is like a polluted river. | Better to decide and to act, at the service of the ready heart | and oppose the anonymous world | uniting the individuals ever more in the * “thou”.
