We had the experience but missed the meaning, And approach to the mean- ing restores the experience, In a different form, be- yond any meaning We can assign to happin ess. I have said before that the past experience revived in the meaning Is not the experience of one life only But ofmany generations -- not forgetting Something that is quite probably quite ineffabie: The backward look behind the assurance Of recorded history, the backward haIf-Iook Over the shoulder, toward the primitive terror.

Comfortable sHence and laughter, 50 man y shared memories - No matter what follows after, Nothin g can take these away.
