"There was a rich man; he had great flocks and herds of livestock large and small. There was a poor little maiden; she possessed but a single lamb, it ate from her hand and drank from her cup. I was the rich man, rich in all the glories of the world; You the poor one who possessed only your love. I took it, I delighted in it. Then desire beckoned me, I and sacrificed the little you possessed- I could not sacrifice anything of my own. There was a rich man; he possessed great flocks and herds. There was a poor little maiden, she possessed only her love."
