170 I want to know if you believe in Heaven,

God or the soul&mdash;no, do not tell me yet;

You need not be afraid I shall be, angry,

Say what you please&mdash;so that it is your thought&mdash;

I wanted you to know before you spoke,

That I shall not be angry.

We have not forgotten, Father.

Oh no, Father.

(As if repeating a lesson) There is nothing we cannot see, nothing we cannot touch.
