00:00:01.200 --> 00:00:03.240 align:middle line:84%
Well, I want to
read something, try

00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:06.930 align:middle line:84%
to approximate the trance-like
feeling of composing it.

00:00:06.930 --> 00:00:10.210 align:middle line:84%
So I'll drawl this
even more than usual.

00:00:10.210 --> 00:00:12.900 align:middle line:84%
And I hope you'll indulge me,
because I'll speed up again

00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:13.920 align:middle line:90%
after this one.

00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:16.920 align:middle line:84%
But I just want to
go dawdling along,

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:22.260 align:middle line:84%
letting the next point
occur as a result of saying

00:00:22.260 --> 00:00:24.210 align:middle line:90%
the present point.

00:00:24.210 --> 00:00:33.120 align:middle line:84%
It's called "With Kit,
Age 7, at the Beach."

00:00:33.120 --> 00:00:35.535 align:middle line:84%
"We were going to
the highest dune.

00:00:35.535 --> 00:00:38.220 align:middle line:90%


00:00:38.220 --> 00:00:43.530 align:middle line:84%
From there, to
gaze and come down.

00:00:43.530 --> 00:00:47.580 align:middle line:90%
The ocean was performing.

00:00:47.580 --> 00:00:49.020 align:middle line:90%
We contributed our climb.

00:00:49.020 --> 00:00:52.330 align:middle line:90%


00:00:52.330 --> 00:00:56.710 align:middle line:84%
Out of the storm, those waves
leapfrogged forward and came.

00:00:56.710 --> 00:01:00.140 align:middle line:90%


00:01:00.140 --> 00:01:01.430 align:middle line:90%
What should our trip mean?

00:01:01.430 --> 00:01:04.580 align:middle line:90%


00:01:04.580 --> 00:01:06.335 align:middle line:90%
Kit waited for me to decide.

00:01:06.335 --> 00:01:09.690 align:middle line:90%


00:01:09.690 --> 00:01:14.370 align:middle line:84%
Faced with that kind of world,
what would you tell your child?

00:01:14.370 --> 00:01:17.160 align:middle line:90%


00:01:17.160 --> 00:01:21.765 align:middle line:84%
That was an absolute vista,
the froth blew far and cold.

00:01:21.765 --> 00:01:24.930 align:middle line:90%


00:01:24.930 --> 00:01:29.700 align:middle line:84%
I knew Kit was afraid, the
way she held onto my hand.

00:01:29.700 --> 00:01:32.430 align:middle line:90%


00:01:32.430 --> 00:01:35.295 align:middle line:84%
How far could you swim,
daddy, in such a storm?

00:01:35.295 --> 00:01:38.560 align:middle line:90%


00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.010 align:middle line:90%
As far as was needed, I said.

00:01:42.010 --> 00:01:45.500 align:middle line:90%
And as I talked, I swam."

00:01:45.500 --> 00:01:46.000 align:middle line:90%
