9. Renunciation

```

Yesterday

You renounced

Your wild animosity;

Therefore

Heaven is unmistakably proud of you.

Today

You have renounced

Your blind stupidity;

Therefore

Earth is divinely proud of you.

Tomorrow

You will renounce

Your proud necessity;

Therefore

Both God and I

Will be supremely proud of you. ```
