GPT

This closing fragment moves through losing a spear, losing access to the mother, losing eyes, keeping the mind, and ending on `vituperatively`.

Restoring the spear line makes the fragment feel more bodily and martial before it turns toward mother, sight, and mental survival. The last word keeps the page accusatory and alive even after successive losses.
