“A solitary traveler whom we saw perambulating in the distance loomed like a giant. He appeared to walk slouchingly, as if held up from above by straps under his shoulders, as much as supported by the plain below.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Come little babe, come silly soul,

—Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)

—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
