CHAPTER XXI

 I will meet one day the Life within me, the joy that hides in my life, though the days perplex my path with their idle dust.

 

I have known it in glimpses, and its fitful breath has come upon me, making my thoughts fragrant¹ for a while.

 

I will meet one day the Joy without me that dwells behind the screen of light—and will stand in the overflowing² solitude³ where all things are seen as by their creator.
