合理的哀伤

A Reasonable Affliction
Matthew Prior
On his deathbed poor Lubin lies;
His spouse is in despair;
With frequent sobs and mutual cries;
They both express their care.
"A different cause," says Parson Sly,
"The same effect may give:
Poor Lubin fears that he may die ;
His wife,that he may live".
合理的哀伤
马修·普赖厄
可怜的鲁宾躺在他的病床里;
他的妻子陷入绝望;
频频啜泣,相对哭啼,
他们都表达着忧伤。
“不同原因,”滑头牧师说,
“可产生同样结果:
可怜的鲁宾怕他会死;
他老婆,怕他会活。”
