    I was thinking today that I first read this poem when I was about 16 as a student at the Lawrenceville School, and still these nearly 4 decades later it has lost nothing of its power.

    I remember reading this at the Episcopal High School (Virginia) in 1979. Still has a lot of meaning.

  3. David Keller says:

    Kendall, I read for the first time in college in 1969. I agree with what you say, but this version is particularly powerful. Thanks, for posting it.
