english: "This living hand, now warm and capable Of earnest grasping, would, if it were cold And in the icy silence of the tomb, So haunt thy days and chill thy dreaming nights That thou would wish thine own heart dry of blood So in my veins red life might stream again, And thou be conscience-calm’d -- see here it is -- I hold it towards you."
non_english: Ova živa ruka, sad topla i sposobna za najozbiljnija poduhvate bi, kada bi bila hladna i nalazila se u ledenoj tišini grobnice, pohodila bi ove dane i vaše noći ispunjene snovima. Tada bi poželeli da vam vlastito srce bude suvo i bez krvi. U mojim venama će možda crveni život teći ponovo vaša svest umirena - evo ga, držim ga pred vama.
