"My god, the day shines bright over the Land, but for me the day is black. The bright day has become (?) a …… day. Tears, lament, anguish and despair are lodged within me. Suffering overwhelms me like a weeping child. In the hands of the fate demon my appearance has been altered, my breath of life carried away. The asag demon, the evil one, bathes in my body."
