BrTr O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy, and unto him whose strength faileth, that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things, and to him that despaireth, and hath lost patience!

WEBBE O death, your sentence is acceptable to a man who is needy and who fails in strength,
⇔ who is in extreme old age, is distracted about all things,
⇔ is perverse, and has lost patience!
