“Sunk for a long time in profound thoughts as to
the value of obscurity, and the delight of having no name, but being
like a wave which returns to the deep body of the sea; thinking how
obscurity rids the mind of the irk of envy and spite; how it sets
running in the veins the free waters of generosity and magnanimity; and
allows giving and taking without thanks offered or praise given; which
must have been the way of all great poets, he supposed (though his
knowledge of Greek was not enough to bear him out), for, he thought,
Shakespeare must have written like that, and the church builders built
like that, anonymously, needing no thanking or naming, but only their
work in the daytime and a little ale perhaps at night-'What an admirable
life this is,' he thought, stretching his limbs out under the oak tree.
'And why not enjoy it this very moment?' The thought struck him like a
bullet. Ambition dropped like a plummet. Rid of the heart-burn of
rejected love, and of vanity rebuked, and all the other stings and
pricks which the nettle-bed of life had burnt upon him when ambitious of
fame, but could no longer inflict upon one careless of glory, he opened
his eyes”
