1. To think of it! / To think of time -- of all that retrospection! / To think of to-day, and the ages continued henceforward! / Have you guessed you yourself would not continue? / Have you dreaded these earth-beetles? / Have you feared the future would be nothing to you?
Is to-day nothing? Is the beginningless past nothing? / If the future is nothing, they are just as surely nothing.
