# The Story Without an End (Austin, 1913)/Dedication

TO MY DAUGHTER.
    My dear Child,
The story you love so much in German I dedicate to you in English. It was in compliance with your earnest wish that other children might share the delight it has so often afforded you, that I translated it; so that it is, in some sort, yours of right. Let us hope that your confident expectations of sympathy in your pleasure may not be disappointed; or that, if others think the story less beautiful than you ​do, they may find compensation in the graceful designs it has inspired.
You have often regretted that it left off so soon, and would, I believe, “have been glad to hear more and more, and for ever.” The continuation you have longed for lies in a wide and magnificent book, which contains more wonderful and glorious things than all our favourite fairy-tales put together. But to read in that book, so as to discover all its beautiful meanings, you must have pure, clear eyes, and an humble, loving heart; otherwise you will complain, as some do, that it is dim and puzzling, or as others, that it is dull and monotonous.
​May you continue to read in it with new curiosity, new delight, and new profit; and to find it, as long as you live, the untiring “Story without an End.”
Your affectionate Mother,
S. A.

​THIS is a fierce bad Rabbit; look at his savage whiskers, and his claws and his turned-up tail.
​THIS is a nice gentle Rabbit. His mother has given him a carrot.
​THE bad Rabbit would like some carrot.
​HE doesn't say "Please."
He takes it!
​AND he scratches the good Rabbit very badly.
​THE good Rabbit creeps away, and hides in a hole. It feels sad.
​THIS is a man with a gun.
​HE sees something sitting on a bench. He thinks it is a very funny bird!
​HE comes creeping up behind the trees.
​AND then he shoots—Bang!
​THIS is what happens—
​BUT this is all he finds on the bench, when he rushes up with his gun.
​THE good Rabbit peeps out of its hole,
​AND it sees the bad Rabbit tearing past—without any tail or whiskers!

# The Story Without an End (Austin, 1913)/Chapter 9

IX.
And when he had eaten his fill, he sat down on the soft moss, crossed one little leg over the other, and began to gossip with the fire-flies. And as he so often thought on his unknown parents, he asked them who were their parents. Then the one nearest to him gave him answer, and he told how that they were formerly flowers, but none of those who thrust their rooty hands greedily into the ground and draw nourishment from ​the dingy earth, only to make themselves fat and large withal; but that the light was dearer to them than anything, even at night; and while the other flowers slept, they gazed unwearied on the light, and drank it in with eager adoration–sun, and moon, and star light. And the light had so thoroughly purified them, that they had not sucked in poisonous juices like the yellow flowers of the earth, but sweet odours for sick and fainting hearts, and oil of potent ethereal virtue for the weak and the wounded; and at length, when their autumn came, they did not, like the others, wither and sink down, leaf and flower, to be ​swallowed up by the darksome earth, but shook off their earthly garment, and mounted aloft into the clear air. But there it was so wondrously bright, that sight failed them; and when they came to themselves again, they were fire-flies, each sitting on a withered flower-stalk.
And now the Child liked the bright-eyed flies better than ever, and he talked a little longer with them, and inquired why they showed themselves so much more in spring. They did it, they said, in the hope that their gold-green radiance might allure their cousins, the flowers, to the pure love of light.

For the things ye do, when your life is new,  And your sin is sinned with a smile, Ye shall pay full sore, ye men, though the score  The Fates hold back for a while; Ye shall pay, at the end, for your frauded friend,  For the secret your lips betray, For the lust and the lie, to the Gods on High  Ye shall pay — ye shall pay — ye shall pay!
Ye shall pay ten-fold, with your heart’s best gold,  Ah, tempted women and true! Ye shall render account, to the full amount,  For each beautiful thing ye do. For the youth ye yield, for the soul ye shield,  For the pitiful prayers ye pray, ’Tis the fancy of Fate that, soon or late,  Ye shall pay — ye shall pay — ye shall pay!

THE DEDICATION.
Take these, O Christ! I would not give Thy Praise  To others, Sole True Lord of Life and Light;  For Thine the Vow, that camest Sworn to do  Thy Father s Saving Will, Who loveth not  That sinners perish; Thine the Life of toil,  The world's sharp enmity and bitter scorn,  And all the Passion, long drawn-out, which closed  In the great pain of Thy most Holy Cross.  Perfect through Suffering, Thou didst gain for us  The Rest of Paradise, where now, enthroned  As King, Thou reignst in bliss, and whence Thou callst  Poor men to come to Thee, to Whom is given  A Name above all Names, O truest Lord  Of boundless Life and Love uncircumscribed.  Long years Thy Shadow, brooding o'er these Lands,  Hath told of Peace and Hope for sinful men;  Now turn the Shadow to Reality,  And bless us as we gather round Thy Feet,  Oh Amitabha-Christ, Sole Lord of All.

* God and conscience are witnessing every act and those who have so mercilessly inflicted this indescribable torture upon us shall pay the exact toll.
* May God for ever spare your Mothers from the piercing, deafening, heart-wrenching wails, such as we hear from our weak, emaciated babies, and we stand by so helpless.
* Knowing the pure American unselfishness and the great hearts that beat within your strong bodies, we entreat you to save us, but it must be quickly or it will be too late for some.
* May the Great God in the Heavens bestow upon your land and your people His richest blessings for your kindness and assistance already given. This Prussian carnage is adding daily to our terrors and suffering: we implore you to heed our prayers.
* If you actually realized our true conditions it would be needless for your splendid President to even request the conservation of food.
