Andrew Scott reads: The Master Speed By Robert Frost

No speed of wind or water rushing by 
but you have speed far greater. You can climb 
back up a stream of radiance to the sky, 
and back through history up the stream of time. 
And you were given this swiftness, not for haste 
nor chiefly that you may go where you will, 
but in the rush of everything to waste, 
that you may have the power of standing still— 
off any still or moving thing you say. 
Two such as you with such a master speed 
From one another once you are agreed 
that life is only life forevermore 
together wing to wing and oar to oar.
