Lorick #47:


I am ceaselessly plagued with temptation

I've no peace, I'm enraged by frustration

There's a hunger and thirst

Wage of hubris: accursed

No surcease to this agelong privation



But first, we solve #48 - here it is one last time:


I'm Hebrew, I'm Greek, and I'm Latin

I'm used every morning at matins

I'm old and I'm new and

I'm Gutenberg's ruin

I'm cradled in boxes of satin
