00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.510 align:middle line:84%
So this last one was,
again, written this summer.

00:00:03.510 --> 00:00:05.400 align:middle line:84%
This one for John
was written later,

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:08.640 align:middle line:90%
but this is the end of it.

00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:11.368 align:middle line:90%
"Generous Life."

00:00:11.368 --> 00:00:14.565 align:middle line:84%
"Do you remember the
way we used to sing--"

00:00:14.565 --> 00:00:16.393 align:middle line:90%
which I'm sure you all do--

00:00:16.393 --> 00:00:17.520 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:21.540 align:middle line:84%
"Do you remember the way you
used to sing in church when

00:00:21.540 --> 00:00:23.500 align:middle line:90%
you were young?

00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:26.520 align:middle line:84%
That it was fun to
bring your toys with you

00:00:26.520 --> 00:00:31.050 align:middle line:84%
and play with them while
all the others sung?

00:00:31.050 --> 00:00:35.280 align:middle line:84%
My mind goes on its
own particular way

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:38.550 align:middle line:84%
and leaves my apparent
body on its knees

00:00:38.550 --> 00:00:43.260 align:middle line:84%
to get up and walk as far as
it can, if it still wants to,

00:00:43.260 --> 00:00:47.190 align:middle line:90%
and as it still proves able.

00:00:47.190 --> 00:00:49.860 align:middle line:84%
Sit down, says
generous life, and stay

00:00:49.860 --> 00:00:54.750 align:middle line:84%
a while, although it's
irony that sets the table

00:00:54.750 --> 00:00:57.900 align:middle line:84%
and puts the meager
food on broken dishes,

00:00:57.900 --> 00:01:02.490 align:middle line:84%
pours out the rancid
wine, and walks away."

00:01:02.490 --> 00:01:04.764 align:middle line:84%
That's not a very
sweet note to end on.

00:01:04.764 --> 00:01:05.264 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:05.264 --> 00:01:08.990 align:middle line:84%
Let those who wish and need
to split, and [INAUDIBLE].

00:01:08.990 --> 00:01:09.590 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.

00:01:09.590 --> 00:01:12.500 align:middle line:90%
[APPLAUSE]

00:01:12.500 --> 00:01:13.000 align:middle line:90%
