181

I was a theist of the first water.

But now I am converted to a titan atheist.

Therefore I am clothed with shame.

But alas, shame is ever impotent.

No power it has.

Once I was a flood of ecstasy.

Now I am a main of pangs.

O Lord and God, I know my disease is atheism.

I have sufficient experience of this disease but no experience in curing it.

“My son, depend wholly upon your Will’s help.

It alone can transform your malignant present into a benign future like your golden past.

My son, to have belief in Me is to dwell in Eldoradoes.

To have no belief in Me is to live in a fruitless nowhere.”
