管得了身體，可管得了靈魂？

        莎拉·蒂斯代爾

 靈魂住在身體裡，

 你擁有着她和她的房子。

 可她有時很不安分守己

 好似放浪不羈的風流女子：

 水性揚花，追新求異，

 其萍蹤和去向你無從曉知。

 唉唉，我那忠貞不二的身體

 如何將不守婦道的靈魂抵禦？

          Doubt

      Sara Teasdale

My soul lives in my body's house,

And you have both the house and her—

But sometimes she is less your own

Than a wild, gay adventurer;

A restless and an eager wraith,

How can I tell what she will do—

Oh, I am sure of my body's faith,

But what if my soul broke faith with you?
