    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Nullification ... means insurrection and war; and the other states have a right to put it down.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    There the old misgivings, crooked questions are.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    It was in and about the Martinmas time,
    When the green leaves were afalling,
    That Sir John Graeme, in the West Country,
    Fell in love with Barbara Allan.
