The trouble that I've taken to deserve

That pretty one, has been for me like that

Of daring merchant who doth undertake

A venture and gets nothing back but loss

And weariness. Where is thy cure, O Taleb?

Thy remedy is lost, my good Lord Taleb.

The Taleb answered unto me and said:

"Support her rigors. Listen now to me,

And I will give thee counsel sound and good.

Turn thy true heart aside from memory.
