There is a kind of gentle, absolute kith* that  kithes†
an  issue without preventing it; and that the Hellenes nomi‐
nated μοῖρα (moira).

     My  purblind wife, for instance, in redding‡ her bairn,

liophobia.**

sion):
     I will example it.

       Were still at odds, being but three.
     There's the moral. Now the l'envoi.
