They entered society with noble aspirations, only to be reduced to mere shells by reality. Their cheerful disposition in their youth gave way to ultimate despair, drooping heads, and listlessness. Society leaves no room for respite; there is only exploitation and demands, forcing them to choose humiliation out of necessity.
