Ah the eternal hope. We humans strove, we struggled out of the bog,
and always there was the promise of a real stone floor in a hut not
stuffed with smoke, of a bed with fewer fleas, of a suit of armor no
one had peed in, of running water and a proper sewer, of two sets of
clothes, of a table not wiped with a dirty rag, of food that was
bacterially or virally trustworthy, of a hospital free of iatrogenic
disease, of a translation that models fidelity for us.
How handsome the translation looks in that clean gown.
