The spiritual life, which alone gives them meaning and being, glides away before the logical dissecting knife, and leaves it but a corpse to work upon. It does not appear who this John Wachter was, nor by what accident he came to have so distinguished a critic.
Alas, how ugly bitter it is to die; how sweet and snugly we can live in this snug, sweet nest of earth. What nice words; I must start a poem with them.

Then, as I hurried by as fast as I could go, the blacksmith, Wachter, who was there, with his apprentice, reading the bulletin, called after me: "Don't go so fast, bub; you'll get to your school in plenty of time!" I thought he was making fun of me, and reached M. Hamel's little garden all out of breath.
Turning to him I suggested, in as suave a voice as I could command, that he should accompany me to the "Wachter" to ascertain the extent of his responsibilities and to have the matter thrashed out once and for all. Needless to say he declined this invitation, protesting that it was unnecessary. He invited me to retain occupation of the kiosk.
Then, as I ran across the square, Wachter the blacksmith, who stood there with his apprentice, reading the placard, called out to me: "Don't hurry so, my boy; you'll get to your school soon enough!" I thought that he was making fun of me, and I ran into Monsieur Hamel's little yard all out of breath.
