The Philosophy of Despair
David Starr Jordan · English
First paragraph preview
Original (English)
David Starr Jordan To John Maxson Stillman In Token of Good Cheer A darkening sky and a whitening sea, And the wind in the palm trees tall; Soon or late comes a call for me, Down from the mountain or up from the sea, Then let me lie where I fall. And a friend may write—for friends there be, On a stone from the gray sea wall, "Jungle and town and reef and sea— I loved God's Earth and His Earth loved me, Taken for all in all."
