47. Perhaps they will

```

Since

It is a good day to die,

Ask your old ignorance-friend

To die for you.

Perhaps he will.

Since

It is a good day to study,

Ask your knowledge-brother

To study for you.

Perhaps he will.

Since

It is neither a good day nor a bad day,

Ask your compassion-mother

To fulfil you.

Certainly she can and she will.
