I stretched out my hands in unspeakable gratitude to him through whose scientific power I had gained my recent experience. "I dare say you know something of what I have seen on my journey ?" "Something, but not all," he replied. "Of course I know what worlds and systems you saw, but what was said to you, or what special lessons were given you for your comfort, I cannot tell." "Then I will describe everything while it is fresh upon me," I returned. "I feel that I must do so in order that you may understand how glad I am,--how grateful I am to you." I then related the different scenes through which I had passed, omitting no detail. |
