Merle,

Merle put me before one of the Inquisitions:
"joe..why?.... why read it again?"

You talk about your salad days.

Try a new dressing on that old salad.  Tasty!

It's all your experience and awakening, since.

You've got a lot more experience under the belt, and developed more 
perspicacity now, I'll bet you, any day of the week.

You mean you won't look at an *Artist's* work ***TWICE***?

Ha!!  But... ..

It's never the same river!

I love it.

I doubt you!  You're not THAT blunt ended.

Call me Mister Dubious.

"Well, yeah, HEY; I BEEN to the Louvre *ONCE*: fuggit, man!"

Go again.  Stroll.  No hurries.  No worries.  No salad threatening to wilt or 
brown.  This is YOUR time.  Sit upon some of the nice hardwood museum benches 
my Frenchie woodworkers fashioned.  Gawk.  Let the Art make a spectacle of 
itself.  Get up and look at the brushstrokes.  Every ...page!

The mature Mr. Hesse is waiting to meet the mature Ms. Merle.

Will the real Herr Hesse please stand up?

You'll recognize him now.  Maybe not as your adolescent image of the old man, 
dearie-o.  That was a ways back.  See what you can see?  ...Said the Astronomer.
