Mark, you have to have lived and observed for a long time before you can see those four fine words in context. They are a sequence, a natural progression. There, despite the grace of God, go most of us.

And John, I did so in an anthology, opposite Auden. We settle companionably face-to-face each time the book closes. To the extent, of course, that we both exist.
