"The awful immortality of life!

The white path winding deathlessly to death!

Why didst thou call the rain from out her caves

To draw a dying earth back to the day?

Why fatten flocks for our dark feast, who sit

Beside the gate, and know where the path ends?

O pitiless gods -- that I am one of you!"

-Pomegranate Seed by Edith Wharton
