Posted: Sat Jul 08, 2006 2:44 pm
I need someone to get the the poem Mhoram recites wben his parents died. I don't have my books with me and need that quote.....PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Death reaps the beauty of the world --
bundles old crops to hasten new.
Be still, heart:
hold peace.
Growing is better than decay:
I hear the blade which severs life from life.
Be still, peace:
hold heart.
Death is passing on --
the making way of life and time for life.
Hate dying and killing, not death.
Be still, heart:
make no expostulation.
Hold peace and grief
and be still.
