Sadness and fear and hate, how they well up in the heart and mind, whenever one opens pages of these messengers of doom. Cry for the broken tribe, for the law and the custom that is gone.

The sun pours down on the earth, on the lovely land that man cannot enjoy. He knows only the fear of his heart.
