It Was Not Necessary To Study

 It was not necessary to study
the language
of a strange country;
anyway, it would be of no help.

It was not necessary to know
where Italy or England
is located;
travel was obviously
out of question.

It was not necessary to live
among the wild beasts
of Noah's ark,
which had just devoured
the last dove of peace,
along with Noah
and his virtuous family.

It was not necessary to strive
for some holy land
awash in milk and honey,
according to rumor.
