    “Thou hast left behind
    Powers that will work for thee; air, earth, and skies;
    There’s not a breathing of the common wind
    That will forget thee; thou hast great allies;
    Thy friends are exultations, agonies,
    And love, and man’s unconquerable mind.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    With an arm of scrawny mast
    For the visions in the sky
    That go blindly pouring past.”
