MA ... 7

The drop dissolves in the ocean and hanging droplets brood insignificantly on its extinction. But it is immortality that is thus gained and not death. The wave rises only to subside before it, perchance, rises again to enact a fresher episode. Else, it merges perennially in the water of eternal life.
