What sayest thou, clear thinker,
about friendship?

Have you cherished love?

Though Power, yes, is sought
(there is no doubt), is every motion
just a chasing after clout?

What would your mother think?

I do not speak for her
or for myself,
but for the Lady,

who has sent me
to remind you who you are.
