Instruct them how the soul of man becomes…”
“Though too weak to tread the ways of truth
This age falls back to old idolatry,
Though men return to servitude a fact

Find solace–knowing what we have learned to know
Rich in true happiness, if allowed to be
Faithful alike in forwarding a day
Of greater Light, joint laborers in

“Oh, I see,” said Professor James, still being polite. “But would you be so good as to tell me what holds up the second turtle?”
“It’s no use, Professor,” said the old lady, realizing he was trying to lead her into a logical trap. “It’s turtles-turtles-turtles, all the way!“
