Authors: R. A. MacAvoy

Do not mourn Powl, or any of your dead too much, old friend. I share your feelings; I see him daily, when I am not looking for him, and I hear his voice.

But I repeat again that first thing Powl or my own madness revealed to me, on the cold stone flags of an ugly brick building, at the raw age of nineteen:

Death is before life and after it and in it all together, suffused with a light as perfect as the rays of the sun. It comes not as an insult, nor a defeat, nor does it serve as a boundary to the free soul.

This I do remember.
