““Because a few complacent years
Have made your peril of your pride,
Think you that you are to go on
Forever pampered and untired?”

Rock and no water and the sandy road
The road winding above among the mountains
Which are mountains of rock without water
If there were water we should stop and drink
Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think”
