This book is dedicated
with fondest memories
to my father,
the late John J. Phelan, who inspired me,
and
with deepest affection
to my friend and colleague
Dr. Francis X. Lawlor, who encouraged me.
Page vi
There was a child went forth every day,
And the first object he looked upon, that object he
became,
And that object became part of him for the day or a
certain part of the day,
Or for many years or stretching cycles of
years.
The early lilacs became part of this child,
And grass and white and red morning-glories, and...
The horizon's edge, the flying sea crow, the
fragrance of salt marsh and shore mud,
These became part of that child who went forth every
day, and who now goes, and will always go forth
every day.
Walt Whitman, "There Was a Child Went Forth"
