Sri Aurobindo — Roy, Dilip Kumar

August 9, 1936

The Light went out, the Light went out – and being not fortunate enough to be in line with the Government house, ours remained out. I had no time nor courage to go through a long pencilled poem with my insufficient substitute1 – so all had to be shoved over to tomorrow. Man proposes, but the Pondicherry Municipality disposes. But there will be Grace tomorrow – P.M. volente.

 

1 I believe that when there was no electricity Sri Aurobindo just had a wick-lamp as “substitute”.
