Neither will I put myself forward as others may do,
Neither, if you wish to flatter, will I flatter you;
I will look at you grimly, and so you will know I am true.
William Rose Benet

The ignorant soul bride wanders in delusion, in the love of duality, she sits like a widow. She sits like a widow, in the love of duality, infatuated with Maya, she suffers in pain. She grows old, and her body withers away.
