I did not know then how much was ended. When I look back now from this high hill of my old age, I can still see the butchered women and children lying heaped and scattered all along the crooked gulch as plain as when I saw them with eyes still young. And I can see that something else died there in the bloody mud, and was buried in the blizzard. A people's dream died there. It was a beautiful dream.

I was four years old then, and I think it must have been the next summer that I first heard the voices.

There can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace which is within the souls of men.

Give me strength to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is.

I saw more than I can tell / And I understood more than I saw.

All over the sky a sacred voice is calling your name.

And as he spoke of understanding, I looked up and saw the rainbow leap with flames of many colors over me.
