{AT ONCE IN SOLEMN COMPULSION}



She is behind us at this moment of first launching out. You’re the echo. How well

she bore the high spaciousness. Drove over eighty hours. Hers was an effectiveness.

Never a day she wasn’t drinking. Made its own terms in advance. My mind says

friend they’ve made you an enchanting table. Loosen up. You don’t begin

120 mg immediately. A well-shod foot extended to the blaze.
