6.56

Better far for me to die today,

Than live a long and evil life.

However great may be my length of days,

The pain of dying will be all the same.

6.57

One man dreams he lives a hundred years

Of happiness, but then he wakes.

Another dreams an instant’s joy,

But then he, likewise, wakes.

6.58

And when they wake, the happiness of both

Is finished, never to return.

Likewise, when the hour of death comes round,

Our lives are over, whether brief or long.
