    EPIGRAPH: There have been joys too great to be described in words, and there have been griefs upon which I have not dared to dwell; and with these in mind I say, Climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are nought without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste; look well with each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end.

    EPIGRAPH: Upward I looked, and beheld its shoulders, Vested already with that planet's rays Which leadeth others right by every road. Then was my fear a little quieted.
