An American Elegy

a favorite of Elizabeth’s from St. Augustine’s Confessions

All kinds of things rejoiced my soul in their company— to talk and laugh and do each other kindnesses; read pleasant books together, pass from lightest jesting to talk of the deepest things, and back again; to differ without rancor...teach each other or learn from each other; be impatient for the return of the absent, and welcome them with joy on their homecoming; these and such like things, proceeding from our hearts as we gave affection...kindled a flame which fused our very souls and of many made us one.
