When it is over, some one whose business it is, will be sure to give you in a digested form all that it concerns you to know, and save you trouble, confusion, and time. If you will follow this plan, you will be surprised to find how new and fresh your interest in what you read will become.”

—Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

In shaping-time the circle stung awake,
In shapes of sin forked out the bearded apple....”
