It would be too much to expect that any such merely chronological incident should induce the people who write about Fielding to read him; this kind of neglect is only another name for glory.

A moment‚ much like life‚ is not fully complete until one realizes that it is fleeting. The curse of man is that after being gifted with advanced intellect and comprehension‚ he is now fully knowledgeable of the impending demise about to be suffered by him and his kind.
