“I Shall Return” by Claude McKay (questions 1-4) I shall return again. I shall return

To laugh and love and watch with wonder-eyes

At golden noon the forest fires burn

Wafting their blue-black smoke to sapphire skies.

5 I shall return to loiter by streams

That bathe the brown blades of the bending grasses, And realize once more my thousand dreams

Of waters rushing down the mountain passes.

I shall return to hear the fiddle and fife

10 Of village dances, dear delicious tunes

That stir the hidden depths of native life, Stray melodies of dim-remembered runes.

I shall return. I shall return again

To ease my mind of long, long years of pain.

" "it isn’t that," said scrooge, heated by the remark, and speaking unconsciously like his former, not his latter, self. "it isn't that, spirit. he has the power to render us happy or unhappy; to make our service light or burdensome; a pleasure or a toil. say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count ’em up: what then? the happiness he gives, is quite as great as if it cost a fortune." he felt the spirit's glance, and stopped. "what is the matter? " asked the ghost. "nothing particular," said scrooge. "something, i think? " the ghost insisted. "no," said scrooge, "no. i should like to be able to say a word or two to my clerk just now. that's all."
