Will purchase us a good opinion,
And buy men’s voices to commend our deeds.”

And laughing is heard on the hill,
My heart is at rest within my breast
And everything else is still.”

“There are these sudden mobs of men,
These sudden clouds of faces and arms,
An immense suppression, freed,
These voices crying without knowing for what,
Except to be happy, without knowing how,
Imposing forms they cannot describe,
Requiring order beyond their speech.”
