Anticipation
A. Blackwood, The Funeral, p. 24
When Lymann Abott wrote the following he was 80 years old:
I enjoy my home, my friends, my life. I shall be sorry to part from them. But I have always stood in the bow looking forward with hopeful anticipation. When the time comes for me to put out to sea, I think I shall still be standing in the bow and looking forward with eager interest and glad hopefulness to the new world to which the unknown voyage will take me.
