Then fainting she falls upon the ground, and when she later sat up again, she only moans again the more: "God, what shall I do, and why live on? THEN FAINTING SHE FALLS UPON THE GROUND AND WHEN SHE LATER SAT UP AGAIN SHE ONLY MOANS AGAIN THE MORE GOD WHAT SHALL I DO AND WHY LIVE ON
she faints upon his body. When she recovered, she said to herself reproachfully: "Woe is me, wretched Enide; I am the murderer of my lord, in having killed him by my speech. My lord would still be now alive, if I in my mad presumption had not spoken the word which engaged him in this adventure. Silence never harmed any one, but speech often worketh woe. The truth of this I have tried and proved in more ways than one." Beside her lord she took her seat, holding his head upon her lap. Then she begins her dole anew. "Alas," she says, "my lord, unhappy thou, thou who never hadst a peer; for in thee was beauty seen and prowess was made manifest; wisdom had given thee its heart, and largess set a crown upon thee, without which no one is esteemed. But what did I say? A grievous mistake I made in uttering the word which has killed my lord--that fatal poisoned word for which I must justly be reproached; and I recognise and admit that no one is guilty but myself; I alone must be blamed for this. L ME HASTILY WITH THESE WORDS SHE FAINTS UPON HIS BODY WHEN SHE RECOVERED SHE SAID TO HERSELF REPROACHFULLY WOE IS ME WRETCHED IN NEED I AM THE MURDERER OF MY LORD IN HAVING KILLED HIM BY MY SPEECH MY LORD WOULD STILL BE NOW ALIVE IF I IN MY MAD PRESUMPTION HAD NOT SPOKEN THE WORD WHICH ENGAGED HIM IN THIS ADVENTURE SILENCE NEVER HARMED ANY ONE BUT SPEECH OFTEN WORKETH WOE THE TRUTH OF THIS I HAVE TRIED AND PROVED IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE BESIDE HER LORD SHE TOOK HER SEAT HOLDING HIS HEAD UPON HER LAP THEN SHE BEGINS HER DOLE ANEW ALAS SHE SAYS MY LORD UNHAPPY THOU THOU WHO NEVER HAST APPEARED FOR IN THEE WAS BEAUTY SEEN AND PROWESS WAS MADE MANIFEST WISDOM HAD GIVEN THEE ITS HEART AND LARGESSE SET A CROWN UPON THEE WITHOUT WHICH NO ONE IS ESTEEMED BUT WHAT DID I SAY A GRIEVOUS MISTAKE I MADE IN UTTERING THE WORD WHICH HAS KILLED MY LORD THAT FATAL POISONED WORD FOR WHICH I MUST JUSTLY BE REPROACHED AND I RECOGNIZE AND ADMIT THAT NO ONE IS GUILTY BUT MYSELF I ALONE MUST BE BLAMED FOR THIS
