“On the Coast of Coromandel
Where the early pumpkins blow,
In the middle of the woods
Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
Two old chairs, and half a candle,—
One old jug without a handle,—
These were all his worldly goods:
In the middle of the woods,”
—Edward Lear (1812–1888)
“I cannot live with You—
It would be Life—
And Life is over there—
Behind the Shelf”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
