Excerpt from Lamps of Fire Never, never shall I forget the awful dumb agony that wrung my heart and froze my tears before they fell, when I saw those same beloved eyes close forever in their last long sleep, and knew that he, who had been dear as even the best parents rarely are, my friend, my spiritual father, my idolized companion - had gone from me, to re turn no more. Like one in a dream, I bade farewell to poor, weeping Biddy and my passionately loved Irish home. My guardian, they said, had arranged for me to go abroad and complete my education.
