And sentimental man, awakened to this disastrous view of things, endures shrewder pangs of rivalry in the contemplation of his usurping posterity than if, as do they, he looked forward to a tricked, perfumed, pommaded whipster, pirouetting like any Pierrot the enviable image of the one who realized her first dream, and to whom specially missioned angels first opened the golden gates of her heart.
