Shall I be fatalistic, And find that everything, Has a definite purpose? And drawing on that, Argument, See that everything, That does not, Should not exist?

The conclusion, May be the same, But the argument, Is slightly different. And there, Lies my pessimism, Against the optimism, Of this wonderful book
