A Beginning.
We look at first for pleasure
In the world on every side,
Ta every antisfaction
We think we'll find a guide,
But plensure proves elusive, And getting is not gain; There's always imperfection
On each successive plane.
So then we ask, for comfort
And strenrth to struggle on And still we look outside us As in the days bygone..
At last we look for courage
In the world of the within, And learn, in deep amazement, That life will now-begin..
