No prettier sight than looking back at a town you've left behind...

If solitude, or fear, or pain, or grief,
Should be thy portion, with what healing thoughts
Of tender joy wilt thou remember me,
and these my exhortations!
-Wordsworth, Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey

at least I get a strapping young lad out of the deal;
my healing thoughts
