我畏惧寡言之人

我畏惧寡言之人——

我畏惧沉默者——

滔滔不绝的人，我将其忽略——

喋喋不休的人，我一笑置之——

但他一字千钧，当众人——

耗尽自己最后的重量——

他令我警觉——

我敬畏他的超卓——

I fear a Man of frugal Speech

I fear a Man of frugal Speech—

I fear a Silent Man—

Haranguer—I can overtake—

Or Babbler—entertain—

But He who weigheth—While the Rest—

Expend their furthest pound—

Of this Man—I am wary—

I fear that He is Grand—
