A Stout Heart May Be Ruined In

There Are No Trifles In The Human Story, No Trifling Leaves On The Tree.

Where The Telescope Ends The Microscope Begins, And Which Has The Wider Vision?

Curiosity Is Gluttony. To See Is To Devour.

Not Ill? No Truly, I Am Young, Healthful, And Strong; The Blood Flows Freely In My Veins; My Limbs Obey My Will; I Am Robust In Mind And Body, Constituted For A Long Life. Yes, All This Is True; And Yet, Nevertheless, I Have An Illness, A Fatal Illness,-an Illness Given By The Hand Of Man!

Oh! Everything I Loved!
