“I get a little Verlaine
for Patsy with drawings by Bonnard although I do

after practically going to sleep with quandariness”

—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“O thou, with dewy locks, who lookest down
Through the clear windows of the morning; turn
Thine angel eyes upon our western isle,
Which in full choir hails thy approach, O Spring!”
