    “Your business is not to catch men with show,
    With homage to the perishable clay,
    But lift them over it, ignore it all,
    Make them forget there’s such a thing as flesh.
    Your business is to paint the souls of men—”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    And the hall to paint in his old trousers
    And that letter to her mother
    Saying Won’t you come for the summer.”
