Canto 18Life and Death
Book 3. Part Three - Baroda and Bengal Circa 1900 – 1909
Life, death, — death, life; the words have led for ages
Our thought and consciousness and firmly seemed
Two opposites; but now long-hidden pages
Are opened, liberating truths undreamed.
5Life only is, or death is life disguised, —
Life a short death until by life we are surprised.
