the world, to other people and to the dead that lived before us:

      [...] jag skrev om mig själv och
  fann i henne
      min like,
      du,
      och jag skrev om de levande men
  fann där,
      till min förvåning,
      alla de döda som någonsin levat [...]
      själ på själ på själ på
      själ [...] (s.155f)

      [[...] I wrote about myself and
  found in her
      my equal,
      you,
      and I wrote about the living but
  found there,
      to my surprise,
      all the dead that ever lived [...]
      soul upon soul upon soul upon
  soul [...]]

Deliria ends by depicting a night in an evil time, but also by saying that there might exist a way out for people who have strength enough to really see the world, which means seeing also the terrible sides of it: "Den väg man talade om kan vara svår att finna [...] men visar sig nog ändå, till slut,/för den som orkar se." ["The way of which one spoke can be hard to find [...] but will probably show itself anyway, in the end, for the one who has strength enough to see."]
