“At times I almost dream
\nI too have spent a life the sage’s way,
\nAnd tread once more familiar paths.
\nPerchance
\nI perished in an arrogant self-reliance
\nAges ago; and in that act, a prayer
\nFor one more chance went up so earnest, so
\nInstinct with better light let in by death,
\nThat life was blotted out \u2014 not so completely
\nBut scattered wrecks enough of it remain,
\nDim memories, as now, when once more seems
\nThe goal in sight again.”<\/p>\n
