1. The minds of others I know well;
2. But who I am, I cannot tell:
3. My eye is much too close to me,
4. I am not what I saw and see.
5. It would be quite a benefit if only I could sometimes sit farther away; but my foes are Too distant; close friends, still too far;
6.Between my friends and me, the middle would do
7.My wish?
8.You guess my riddle.
