    Over the winter glaciers,
    I see the summer glow,
    And, through the wild-piled snowdrift,
    The warm rosebuds below.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
    But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
    We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
    Bible: Hebrew Psalm LV (l. LV, 12–14)
