Not a word, not a deed, not a thought, not a need,
not a grief, not a joy, not a girl, not a boy,
not a doubt, not a trust, not a scorn, not a lust,

not a name, not a face, no time, no place...that I do not regret, exceedingly.
An ordure, from beginning to end.

It was a help, because acquiring the reading habit early is the important thing. Taste and natural development will take care of the rest later on.

Nor will I ever.
