XXXIII.

"Go quickly! For the time approaches when

Destruction must arrive.--Oh, well I know

All thou wouldst say to me.--What boots it then?--

I tell thee thou must go, that thou must go!--

Yea, dost thou think I'd have thee die 'mid men

Like these, for such an one as I!--No! no!--

Thy life is clean. Thou shalt not cast away

Thy clean life for my soiled one. Go, I pray!"
