What I needed was rest, if it were ever to get well.
Rest! I never before knew the meaning of the word.

I had been resting all my life and did not know it.

But now, could I sit still for one half-hour and do nothing, not even think, it would be the most pleasurable thing in the world.

But it is a revelation, on the other hand.

I shall be able to appreciate the lives of the working people hereafter.
