    “But today I set the bed afire
    and smoke is filling the room,

    I have on a mask in order to write my last words,
    and they are just for you....”

    “Through this broad street, restless ever,
    Ebbs and flows a human tide,
    Wave on wave a living river;
    Wealth and fashion side by side;
    Toiler, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide.”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
