“All day long and all night through,
One thing only must I do:
Quench my pride and cool my blood,
Lest I perish in the flood.”

“Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or
the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the
cistern.

shall return unto God who gave it.
Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher, all is vanity.”
