Excerpt from East Coast Days: And Memories The writer has sent out many pages, which have been read by some not without sympathy. But he has never tried to say what he has most thought of. And he could not have expressed it if he had tried. Here is a quite inevitable Economy. Though times beyond number you have Spoken to your fellows, and of very serious matters, you have not talked out all your heart. They do not know you not those who know you best. Strange are the diverse shades Of unutterable thought. Stranger the diverse achings and stings of the poor heart's trouble. And there is a pudency. You have felt much, which it was no discredit to have felt, which it would have been shame not to have felt yet which must not be spoken.
