LIGHTING BY DESIGN

The Artist

One evening there came into his soul the desire to fashion an

image of The Pleasure that abideth for a Moment. And he went

forth into the world to look for bronze. For he could only think in

bronze.

But all the bronze in the whole world had disappeared, nor

anywhere in the whole world was there any bronze to be found,

save only the bronze of the image of The Sorrow that endureth for

Ever.

Now this image he had himself, and with his own hands,

fashioned, and had set it on the tomb of the one thing he had

loved in his life. On the tomb of the dead thing he had most loved

had he set this image of his own fashioning, that it might serve

as a sign of the love of man that dieth not, and a symbol of the

sorrow of man that endureth for ever. And in the whole world there

was no other bronze save the bronze of this image.

And he took the image he had fashioned, and set it in a great

furnace, and he gave it to the fire.

And out of the bronze of the image of The Sorrow that endureth

for Ever he fashioned an image of The Pleasure that abideth for a

Moment.
