contemplation, not least because our knowledge of death is very imperfect, coming as.it does. on every occasion, save one, by ob- servation rather than by personal experience.

Death always seems to be hap- pening to someone else, and we, the onlookers. are all too easily persuaded that it will con- tinue thus. Who among us can

imagine the world without him- SS self? We are reluctant even to try to préject ourselves into the re- ceiving end of the experience.
