by JAMES RANEIN
I see myself as an enlightened humanist.... The Polynesian loves gaiety. Why should he not go fishing? I teach him mathematics as well. I'm no idealist with my head in the clouds. Would it not be worse if I stayed in my ivory tower and played the great man? You want to go back to Scotland. To Edinburgh. To tea parties? .

Everyone suddenly burst out singing;
And I was filled with such delight
As prisoned birds must find in freedom.
Winging wildly across the White
Orchards and dark-green fields ; on - On - and out of sight
