他不知道该怎么办。如果他离开岩石，只需要几分钟的沙漠空气就能使他的水池变干，然后他身上剩下的就只是一小坩埚的棕色粉末，风会发现并吹散这些粉末。他希望留在那里，保护这个水池。但过了一段时间，他的想法就不同了。他明白，如果他留在岩石上，他也会消失。于是，他站了起来。
(He wasn't sure what to do. If he left the rock, it would only take a few minutes of desert air to dry his pool, and then all that would remain of him would be a small crucible of brown powder, a powder the wind would find and scatter. He wished to stay there, to protect the pool.But after a time, he thought differently. He understood that if he stayed upon the rock, he would simply disappear as well. And so, he rose.)
