A learned man came to me once. He said, "I know the way, -- come." And I was overjoyed at this. Together we hastened. Soon, too soon, were we Where my eyes were useless, And I knew not the ways of my feet. I clung to the hand of my friend; But at last he cried, "I am lost."
“A Learned Man Came to Me Once” by Stephen Crane (1871 – 1900)

“…Soon, too soon, were we
Where my eyes were useless,
And I knew not the ways of my feet.”
