So I lie, whose fount of pride, Dear distress, and joy allied, Is my somber flesh and skin, With the dark blood dammed within.

So I lie, whose fount of pride, Dear distress, and joy allied, Is my somber flesh and skin, With the dark blood dammed within.

我就是这样躺着的，我的骄傲、我亲爱的痛苦和欢乐的源泉，就是我那忧郁的肉体和皮肤，里面藏着黑暗的血液。
