241

Mind was my confidant.

Alas!

It has betrayed me into the strangling hands of desires.

Heart was my confidant.

Alack!

It has betrayed me into the ever-widening arms of ambitions.

Soul was my confidant.

I am sure that it will never throw me over.

And let me now disclose my secret. I am the son of the All-powerful.
