About a month ago I was present at a solemn occasion--the reading of a will. I can remember one passage that particularly struck me. It ran something 1 this:“And I direct that £500 be 2 to old William B, whom I have wished to help for many years, 3 always put off doing so.”
It was the Voice of Opportunity 4 written by Beyond. But the story doesn't 5 there. When the lawyers came to 6 out the bequest (遗赠), they discovered that old William B had 7 too, and so the 8 deed was lost.
I felt rather 9 about that. It seemed to me a most regrettable 10 that William would not have had his £500 just 11 somebody kept putting 12 giving it to him. And from 13 accounts, William could have done with the 14 . But I'm 15 that there are thousands of kindly little deeds waiting to be 16 today, which are being put off“ 17 later”.
George Herbert, in praise of good intentions, 18 that“One of these days better than 19 of these days.”But I say that 20 is better than all.
