“creamy iridescent coats of mail,

“The dearest events are summer-rain, and we the Para coats that shed every drop. Nothing is left us now but death. We look to that with grim satisfaction, saying, there at least is reality that will not dodge us.”

““Vengeance upon the murderers,” the cry goes up,
“Vengeance for Jacques Molay.” In cloud-pale rags, or in lace,
The rage-driven, rage-tormented, and rage-hungry troop,
Trooper belabouring trooper, biting at arm or at face,
Plunges towards nothing, arms and fingers spreading wide
For the embrace of nothing....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
