Reflections on the life and death of Edward Drinker, died at
age 103. . . [footnote to the article reads in part]  It is
remarkable that the incidents of childhood or youth are
seldom remembered or called forth until old age . . . [4
lines] How often do we find the transactions of early life,
which we had reason to suppose were lost from the mind
forever, revived in our memories by certain accidental
sights or sounds, particularly by certain notes or airs in
musick.
