"Itu berhenti hujan di malam hari dan dia berjalan di jalan dan memanggil anjing itu. Dia memanggil dan memanggil. Berdiri dalam kegelapan yang tak bisa dijelaskan. Di mana tidak ada suara di mana pun kecuali hanya angin. Setelah beberapa saat dia duduk di jalan. Dia melepas topinya dan meletakkannya di atas aspal di depannya, dan dia menundukkan kepalanya dan memegangi wajahnya di tangannya dan menangis. Dia duduk di sana untuk waktu yang lama dan setelah beberapa saat timur berubah abu-abu dan setelah beberapa saat matahari kanan dan buatan dewa muncul, sekali lagi, untuk semua dan tanpa perbedaan."

It had ceased raining in the night and he walked out on the road and called for the dog. He called and called. Standing in that inexplicable darkness. Where there was no sound anywhere save only the wind. After a while he sat in the road. He took off his hat and placed it on the tarmac before him and he bowed his head and held his face in his hands and wept. He sat there for a long time and after a while the east did gray and after a while the right and godmade sun did rise, once again, for all and without distinction.
