    The rolling English drunkard made the rolling English road.
    A reeling road, a rolling road, that rambles round the shire.

    the beautiful changes
    In such kind ways,
    Wishing ever to sunder
    Things and things’ selves for a second finding, to lose
    For a moment all that it touches back to wonder.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    It is the characteristic of great poems that they will yield of their sense in due proportion to the hasty and the deliberate reader. To the practical they will be common sense, and to the wise wisdom; as either the traveler may wet his lips, or an army may fill its water-casks at a full stream.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
