"I can't help you, Love.You are all wet and might damage my boat,Vanity answered

Sadness was close by so Love asked,"Sadness,let me go with you."
悲伤走了过来,于是爱问:"悲伤,让我和你一块走吧?"

but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly,there was a voice,"Come,Love, I will take you." It was an elder.

So blessed and overjoyed,

Love asked Knowledge another elder,"Who helped me?
爱问另一位叫知识的老人:"帮我的是谁?"
"It was Time." Knowledge answered.
