VI.—CLAUDE TO EUSTACE.
YES, it relieves me to write, though I do not send; and the chance that
Takes may destroy my fragments. But as men pray, without asking
Whether One really exist to hear or do anything for them,—
Simply impelled by the need of the moment to turn to a Being
In a conception of whom there is freedom from all limitation,—
So in your image I turn to an ens rationis of friendship.
Even to write in your name I know not to whom nor in what wise.
