I said to my friend, “See her leaning over his arm? Yesterday she leaned over my arm.” And he said: “Tomorrow she will lean over mine.” And I said, “See her sitting at his side; And yesterday she sat at my side.” And he said, “Tomorrow she will sit at mine.” And I said, “Don’t you see her drinking from his Cup? And yesterday she sipped from mine.” And he said: “Tomorrow she will drink from mine.” And I said, “Look how she glances at him with eyes full of love! And with just such love, yesterday she glanced at me.” And he said: “Tomorrow she will glance at me likewise.” And I said, “Listen to her whispering songs of love in her ears. And yesterday she whispered the same songs in mine.” And he said: “Tomorrow she will whisper then in mine.” And I said, “Look at her embracing him; and yesterday she embraced me.” And he said: “Tomorrow she will lie in my arms.” And I said, “What a strange woman she is!!” And he said: “She is Life.”
