“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within

Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winters cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)

Was less than moonlight. Nothing exists by itself.
The moonlight seemed to.”
