That rtil.-slion is not difficult to be answered, nir. I came from my cradle and am now goinrj straight for ward to my grave. With these two stages of my life I am well acquainted In a word, J endeavouring to sofcen my fate ; but I must have some, thing very engaging, for my dog and destiny remain faithful to mc, and my shadow a!sn but like a false friend only when the sun shines. You shake your head sir, as if you meant to say, I have made choice of bad company. I bought so at fust, but there is noth'.v; so had as not to be useful sometimes. My destiny has made me. humble, and taught mc what 1 did not bctorc kn:)M-, that one cannot unhinge the world. My dog has taught me, there is still love and fidelity in it, and you cannot imagine vh.,t fine things one cad talk with, and respecting one's shadow ! Respecting one's shadow ? that I do ' ot understand. You shall hear sir At sun rise, when I am walking behind my long, twwcnng snadow, what conversation : hold with it on philosophical sub;ects. Look, say I dear shadow, art

thou not like a youth, wlic i the sun of nie is using, the earth seems too small ? just when I lift a leg, thou liftcst another, as if thou wouldst step over ten acres at once ; and yet when thou pultest down thy lee;, thy step i scarcely a span long, so fares it whh outh He seems, as if he would destroy or create a world, and it, in the end, he does none of those tilings, which mh;ht have- been expected from his discourse. Let the sun no v rise higher and thou wilt become smaller, as the youth boasts less, the old r he grows. Thus I compirn you see, the morning, noon and evening shadow with a hundred things: and the longer wc walk toether, the better we iret acouainted. At present 1 can forego manv things v'deh I formerly considered indispenrihie necessaries The shadow is mv watch and my pedometer and sometimes my servant, and sometimes my footman. It is only a pity, that a man cannot exist in his shadow, a s hi shadow dos in him. vVcll, and what do you say in the evening to your shadow ? In the evening? a man's shsdow then is a very serious thing the best moralist a real hour glass a true memento mori When the shadow runs forward before one, still becoming longer and lens visible, as if already hiding its head in the darkness of eternity while behind one is the scttmg sun, and before one a rising star the shadow then seems to say, thou art tm the hi ink of eternity, tinsun is i;oing down, but lose not courge; like me, thou wilt become always greater; and before thee is aliracly suspended a better star, the first ra of eternity beyond the grave. T Vith these words the man became srii.ii inui th. v-rjor aisn Hnth hoked at eacli other in silence.
