The wit and the fate
Can the wit win the fate? A great debate.
Wit is cause and fate is its result.
Can the cause win its result?
It is like the birth winning the death.
Fate is beyond one’s perception,
Which is known when it’s happened.
What has happened is coined as fate.
‘this is an art which does mend Nature.
… the art itself is Nature.’*
*The Winter’s Tale’ Act iv, seen iv
