No matter how strong or clever,

There are those who will never admit it.

I should not mind a bit.
but if a friend of mine had a sorrow
and refused to allow me to share it,

If he shut the doors of the house of mourning against me,

so that I might share in what I was entitled to share.
If he thought me unworthy, unfit to weep with him,
I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.
