  結核の 新薬次々出づるとて 麻薬と同じものにぞありける
87  

One after another new
Medicines for tuberculosis
Appear on the market but they are
Actually the same as any
Prohibited narcotic. 

#1, S6-215B
 
    薬もて 病き癒ゆと思ふこそ 哀れ盲にあればなりけり
88   The very act of
Believing that medicines
Can cure sickness and
Disease is such
Pitiful blindness!
#2, S6-215B-C [SS629I]
         
   

暗の世に 生まれし文化の悉は 地獄を作るものにぞありける

89   All of civilization
That was born during
The age of darkness
Creates the very
Conditions of hell.
#3, S6-215C
 
Each and every culture
That came into the world
During the dark ages
Is the very thing which
Produces a hell on earth.
