Think then what it is to live on here eternally and yet be human; to age in soul and see our beloved die and pass to lands whither we may not hope to follow; to wait while drop by drop the curse of the long centuries falls upon our imperishable being$$$ like water slow dripping on a diamond that it cannot wear$$$ till they be born anew forgetful of us$$$ and again sink from our helpless arms into the void unknowable.
