Excerpt from Stories of Authors' Loves, Vol. 1

Then, as one lost in the woods tries to remember fragments of woodcraft he has heard from the lips of those who knew, - tries, desperately, to recollect whether it is on the north side of tree trunks that one always finds moss or that one never finds it, - so we rack our brains, ofttimes, as we approach a fork in the highway, and try to recall the travellers' tales we've heard, - of one who took the road to Fame and found along it naught but Dead Sea fruit, and of one who followed a path marked Sacrifice and came to a gate marked Paradise.
