The Lounger recalls a Cape May seaside visit meeting the Evening Breeze and host, contrasting old youth memories with present restraint and simple pleasures. A second piece, The Professor in His Chain, reflects on autumn as summer ends, the shift from leisure to purposeful toil, and the teacher’s outlook on students and future opportunities.
