    When the Revolutionaries ran short of gun wadding the Rev. James Caldwell ... broke open the church doors and seized an armful of Watts’ hymnbooks. The preacher threw them to the soldiers and shouted, “Give ‘em Watts, boys—give ‘em Watts!”

    The sentence chronic with the last assize,
    Start running backwards with its timely lies,
    I might have time to live the love I say....
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
