What tragedy depicts is one dike in conflict with another, a law that is not fixed, shifting and changing into its opposite.

悲剧描写是，法则，变幻莫测。

And to know that everything around and underneath had been from prehistoric times as unaltered as the stars overhead, gave ballast to the mind adrift on change, and harassed by the irrepressible New.

同时知道，周围上下切，跟天上繁星，从史前时期以来就未曾有过变动，这时候，随着人世变幻无常而漂泊心灵小船就有了压舱石，因无法制止日新月异而受到困扰心思就镇下来。
