I ordered that my horse be fetched from the barn. The servant didn't understand. I went to the barn myself, saddled and mounted the horse. In the distance I heard a trumpet blow, I asked him what it meant. He knew nothing and had heard nothing. At the gate he stopped me and asked: "Where is the master riding to?" "I do not know", I said. "Just away from here, just away from here. Evermore away from here, that is the only way I can reach my destination."
"So you know your destination", he asked. "Yes", I replied, "that is what I just had said. Away from here - that is my destination."
