Vulgate Daniel

Famous quotes containing the words vulgate and/or daniel:

    The poem goes from the poet’s gibberish to
    The gibberish of the vulgate and back again.
    Does it move to and fro or is it of both
    At once? Is it a luminous flittering
    Or the concentration of a cloudy day?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Short is the glory of the blushing rose,
    The hue which thou so carefully dost nourish,
    Yet which at length thou must be forced to lose.
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
