    “The ghost of the heart of manred Cain
    And the more murderous brain
    Of Man, still redder Nero that conceived the death
    Of his mother Earth, and tore
    Her womb, to know the place where he was conceived.”
    —Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

    “But whenever the roof came white
    The head in the dark below
    Was a shade less the color of night,
    A shade more the color of snow.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
