Cum să nu le mai încurci vreodată
Soluţia radicală pentru vechea problemă cu „lay” şi „lie”
Go, Soul, the body’s guest, Upon a thankless arrant: Fear not to touch the best; The truth shall be thy warrant: Go, since I needs must die, And give the world the lie. |
Mergi, suflete, tu oaspe-al trupului, Pe-o cale fară de răsplată; Să nu te temi de duhu-naltului: Ţi-e adevărul stea curată; Tu mergi – pe mine moartea mă adună. Iar lumii spune-i că-i minciună. |

„Stop!” cried the Englishman, „You win!”
