God shall wipe away all the tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death. Neither shall there be sorrow or dying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former world has passed away. 上帝擦去他们所有的眼泪,死亡不再有,也不再有悲伤和生死离别,不再有痛苦,因往事已矣。
Time assuages?But time never assuages.An actual suffering strengthens,as sinews do,with age.Time is a test of trouble,but not remedy.It such it prove,it prove too,there was no malady. 时间能够平息?但时间永远无法平息,真正的痛苦不断增强,就像精力追随年纪。时间是对烦恼的考验,却不是治疗的良药,如果证明能够治愈,那么,就证明那痛苦本来就不存在。
Nul ne sait,combien ce qu'il refuse , l'Invisible, nous domine, quand notre vie a l'invisible ruse cede, invisiblement. 当我们的生命,在缥缈之间,屈从于不可见的诡计, 无人知晓,这无形的存在,它所拒绝的,怎样支配众人。 ——Rilke,《Vergers》,Ⅵ
