Immortality in youth
No young man believes he shall ever die. It was a saying of my brother’s, and a fine oner4i sdhc. There is a feeling of Eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. To be young is to be as one of the Immortal Gods. One half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countless treasuresdrop shipping for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. We make the coming age our own -- The vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us.
Death. old age. are words without a meaning. that pass by us like the idea air which we regard not. Others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed lifeCast steel”, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies. As in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward- Bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!-and see no end to the landscapediscount clothing, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life.

As infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us. we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining itwholesale wedding dresses, instead of which it only overflows the more objects press around us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon themprom dresses, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
