boundless and the sky without limit;
when Louis broke the silence, speaking
at first as though to himself:
England is over there with a
vague gesture seward, "well, I bear
her no grudge though she has cast me

to me almost fiercely-"Low, l wish
to live! Life is better than art, to do
things is better than to imagine them.

these last years. No one knows, no
ono can know the tedium of it. I've
supported it as l could don't think

what art is good for. for without my

the courage l. could summon. I would
not be here today, if all their loving

willing to take care of myself but to,
keep on my feet, to move about. to mix
with other men, to ride little, to swim
a little, to be wary of my enemy but,
