Abstract

He has no mortal enemies; his only adversary is death and even then, defeat inevitable, he surrenders gracefully. There is yet forgiveness in his eyes as he is stripped of all dignity. He has nothing to lose except his pride and life; his pride he would take to his grave, his life he would give for any good cause. No blood of a king runs through his veins but his heart is of one and noble he is. All he has is water, yet he claims it is wine. And make do he does, with what he has, fooling others and almost fooling himself as he takes a drink from his empty cup.
