    And its noise as the noise in a dream; and its depth as the roots
    of the sea:

    Of motion, or of the noise of motion,
    The renewal of noise
    And manifold continuation....

    The square dance fiddler’s first concern is to carry a tune, but he must carry it loud enough to be heard over the noise of stamping feet, the cries of the “caller,” and the shouts of the dancers. When he fiddles, he “fiddles all over”; feet, hands, knees, head, and eyes are all busy.
    State of Oklahoma, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
