stage_n if_o we_o stay_v any_o long_a time_n in_o it_o and_o pay_v not_o the_o debt_n we_o owe_v death_n require_v interest_n she_o take_v his_o hear_n from_o one_o his_o sight_n from_o another_o

act_v life_n one_o day_n but_o we_o must_v act_v death_n at_o night_n life_n be_v a_o terrace-walke_a with_o a_o arbour_n at_o one_o end_n where_o we_o repose_v and_o dream_n over_o our_o past_a

it_o be_v her_o intention_n to_o strengthen_v our_o hope_n of_o die_v by_o give_v we_o the_o fruition_n of_o this_o resemblance_n of_o death_n lest_o we_o shall_v grow_v impatient_a with_o delay_n she_o favour_v we_o with_o this_o shadow_n and_o image_n of_o it_o as_o lady_n comfort_v themselves_o with_o the_o picture_n of_o their_o absent_a lover_n there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o life_n

be_v make_v for_o corporeal_a action_n but_o the_o night_n be_v the_o working-time_n of_o spirit_n contrary_a nature_n run_v contrary_a course_n body_n have_v no_o inherent_a light_n of_o their_o own_o make_v use_n of_o this_o outward_a light_n but_o spirit_n need_v it_o not_o sunbeam_n can_v stumble_v nor_o go_v out_o of_o their_o way_n death_n free_v they_o from_o this_o dark_a lantern_n of_o flesh_n heraclitus_n use_v to_o say_v that_o man_n be_v both_o dead_a and_o alive_a both_o when_o they_o die_v and_o when_o they_o live_v when_o they_o live_v their_o soul_n be_v dead_a and_o
