The world is yet
unspoiled
for you,
you wait, expectant--
you are like the children
who haunt your own steps
for chance bits--a comb
that may have slipped,
a gold tassel, unravelled,
plucked from your scarf,
twirled by your slight fingers
into the street--
a flower dropped.

Comme les floraisons lepreuses des vieux murs,

Guess: |

Question: |
Why might a Citizen of Athens be corrupted in their principles if they value the affection of strangers more highly than that of their own country? |
Answer: |
A Citizen of Athens might be corrupted in their principles if they value the affection of strangers more highly than that of their own country because the confecration of a crown conferred by foreigners arises from the fear that a citizen might be corrupted in their principles by valuing the affection of strangers over that of their own country. The confecration ensures that the recipient and their posterity are obligated to preserve the glory of Athens and never entertain a thought injurious to the Republic. Therefore, the confecration adds a greater obligation to the recipient and ensures that the affection of their own country is valued over that of foreigners. |

claim--is the absence of any distinctions or forms within Sein.
Guess: |
Dedifferentiation. |
Question: |
How do the concepts of dedifferentiation and simultaneity relate to the absence of distinctions or forms within Sein? |
