<poem>
When a man gives praise and thanks, let him do so repeatedly!
Die he will one day,
but he must have faith that leaves can sprout from barren soil.
For the spirit-complex is ever actively present,
so long as it dawns and dusks, and so long as time passes.

== Grammar notes ==
==Notes==
 
*''ar'' + VERB.VN-CONST + SUBJECT is a time clause: "upon SUBJECT's VERB-ing" or "when SUBJECT VERBs".
Verbs are indicative by default; tense is only marked (with particles) for indicative verbs; the lack of this particle can indicate that a verb is being used to modify a noun instead, or that the verb is being used gnomically. Verbs can agree for animacy or locative type. The optative covers a wide range of subjunctive-like uses. The particle ''tʼíʔ'' may be used to subordinate clauses.
*''ar'' + SUBJECT + ''le'' + VERB.VN means "SUBJECT must VERB".
*VERB.VN + VERB + SUBJECT is an emphatic construction meaning "SUBJECT [surely, definitely] VERBs", with a distinct literary flavor. A clause in this form can also have a concessive force.
*The future is used in time clauses, when the condition holds at or up to some point in time in the future.
