Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. I drink at it, but while I
drink I see the sandy bottom and detect how shallow it is. Its thin
current
slides away, but eternity remains. I would drink deeper, fish in the
sky, whose
bottom is pebbly with stars. I cannot count one. I know not the first
letter of the alphabet. I have always regretted that I was not as wise
as the
day I was born.
