    Full long and many a day;”

    If thou wilt wend thither, thou Little Musgrave,
    Thou’s lig in mine armes all night.”

    some further range of delectable mountains,

    So I begin to understand why my mother’s radar is so sensitive to criticism. She still treads the well-worn ruts of her youth, when her impression of mother was of a woman hard to please, frequently negative, and rarely satisfied with anyone—least of all herself.
