RIC
The Lighthouse
Before he pushed the loaded supply boat out into the sound, he turned his back to the wind, reached into his waistcoat pocket and delicately drew out a folded square of paper. He re-read the copper-plate writing that was so familiar. "Thy way is in the sea, and my path in the great waters." He read the words slowly and deliberately and, although he was not religious, the message carried some deeper significance which was not clear to him. He returned the paper back into his pocket, repeated the words in his mind, and pushed the bow of the boat seaward.
The lighthouse defiantly stood proud of the jagged rocks; a broken jaw of granite. He was always met by the three keepers who stood unwavering in any weather; the sealskin collars on their coats were drawn up to their chins.
R: What was written on the folded piece of paper?
I: Why did he repeat the words in his mind?
C: What do you think the word unwavering means?
