“My maiden Isabel,
Reflaring rosabel.
The fragrant camomel;

The sovereign rosemary,

The columbine, the nept,
The jelofer well set,
The proper violet:”

“To sum up:
1. The cosmos is a gigantic fly-wheel making 10,000 revolutions a minute.
2. Man is a sick fly taking a dizzy ride on it.
3. Religion is the theory that the wheel was designed and set spinning to give him the ride.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
