Lower down,

Persistent, like a sick child’s wail,

The cry of the girl just below me:

“Don’t go, don’t go ...” the poor coward!

(ii)

How light the air is!

I’m dizzy ... my feet fly up ...

And this mad confusion of things topsy-turvey,

With the friendly comprehensible roots all hidden,

In this queer world where one can’t see how things happen,
