I saw a lizard run over the crag; I saw a bee busy among the sweet bilberries. I would fain at the moment have become bee or lizard, that I might have found fitting nutriment, permanent shelter here.
Vidi una lucertola strisciare sulla roccia e un'ape industre ronzare fra le more; in quel momento avrei voluto trasformarmi in ape o in lucertola, per trovar cibo e asilo.
