In front of you and harmony behind.
Be deaf to music and to beauty blind.
Win war. Rise bloody, maybe not too late
For having first to civilize a space
Wherein to play your violin with grace.”

“He plays o’the viol-de-gamboys, and speaks three or four languages word for word without book, and hath all the good gifts of nature.”
