I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me, And what can be the
use of him is more than I can see. He is very, very like me from the
heels up to the head; And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my
bed. The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow-- Not at
all like proper children, which is always very slow; For he sometimes
shoots up taller, like an india-rubber ball, And he sometimes gets so
little that there's none of him at all. -- R.L. Stevenson
