The End of the Wise and the Fool
For what can the man do who succeeds the king?—
Only what he has already bdone.
But the fool walks in darkness.
Yet I myself perceived
That bthe same event happens to them all.
“As it happens to the fool,
It also happens to me,
And why was I then more wise?”
Then I said in my heart,
“This also is vanity.”
Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come.
And how does a wise man die?
As the fool!
