    EPIGRAPH: Facing west from California's shores, ... I, a child, very old, over waves, towards the house of maternity, the land of migrations, look afar, Look off the shores of my Western sea, the circle almost circled; ... Now I face home again, very pleas'd and joyous, (But where is what I started for so long ago? And why is it yet unfound?)
