A MATTER OF SEMANTICS
by: Gustavo Adolfo Becquer (1836-1870)
 t's a matter of semantics, and yet
- After what happened, you and I
- Could never agree
- Who is at fault.
- Too bad there is no lover's dictionary
- To define once and for all
- When pride is merely pride,
- And when it is dignity.
- --Translated by Walter Wykes
