—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“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 (18651939)

One cordial in this melancholy vale,
T is when a youthful, loving, modest pair
In others arms breathe out the tender tale,”
