Past,Present,Future
No man loses any other life thanthis which now he lives
Nor lives any other - than this which he now loses
Longest and Shortest are thus brought to the same
for what is lost appears to be a mere moment
A man cannot lose either the past or future
as they are not with him
How can anyone take this that which he doesn't possess
The present is the only thing which a man can be deprived of!
for it is the only thing that he possesses!
