/ thought of the poem, wait
ing," by John Burroughs:
Serene. fold my hands and wait,
Nor care for wind nor tide nor
sea;
I rave no more 'gainst time or

For 10! My own shall come to
me.
ST stay my haste, make delays;
For what aYails this eager pace?
I stand amid the eternal ways,
And what is mine shall know
my face"
That's it-what belongs to you

your insensate rushing, your raw
ing against time or delay can
bring it one step nearer, shorten
by one instant the time that must
pass before you hold 1t in your
hands.
But those things can hurt you;
they can strike the smile from
your lips, the song from your
heart.

Of waiting:

The tidal wave unto the sea:
Nor time nor space, nor deep nor
