Softly I lay my right hand upon you, you ust feel it, I do not argue, I bend my head close and half envelop it, I sit quietly by, I remain faithful, I am more than nurse, more than parent or neighbor, I absolve you from all except yourself spiritual bodily, that is eternal, you yourself will surely escape, The corpse you will leave will be but excrementitious. The sun bursts through in unlooked-for directions, Strong thoughts fill you and confidence, you smile, I exclude others from you, there is nothing to be commiserated, I do not commiserate, I congratulate you. ./cache/chapter-276.txt ./txt/chapter-276.txt
