BURROUGHS, John. AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT SIGNED: from "Waiting" [West Park, 
NY], 17 October 1902. The first two stanzas of his best known poem 
SIGNED and dated by him at the conclusion.

Serene, I fold my hands and wait,
Nor care for wind, nor tide, nor sea;
I rave no more 'gainst time or fate,
For, lo! my own shall come to me.

I stay my haste, I make delays,
For what avails this eager pace?
I stand amid the eternal ways,
And what is mine shall know my face.

With envelope addressed in Burroughs's hand.
