Sometimes
I
say
to
myself:
I
have
grasped
happiness!
Here
it
is;
I
have
it.
And
yet,
it
always
seems
at
that
moment
of
complete
fulfillment
as
though
my
hand
trembled,
that
I
might
not
take
it!
I
wonder
if
you
recall
the
story
of
Christian
and
Hopeful,
how,
standing
on
the
hill
Clear
(as
we
do
sometimes--at
our
best)
they
looked
for
the
gates
of
the
Celestial
City
(as
we
look--how
fondly!):
"Then
they
essayed
to
look,
but
the
remembrance
of
that
last
thing
that
the
shepherds
had
showed
them
made
their
hands
shake,
by
means
of
which
impediment
they
could
not
look
steadily
through
the
glass:
yet
they
thought
they
saw
something
like
the
gate,
and
also
some
of
the
glory
of
the
place."
How
often
I
have
thought
that
I
saw
some
of
the
glory
of
the
place
(looking
from
the
hill
Clear)
and
how
often,
lifting
the
glass,
my
hand
has
trembled!
