It was the demand of
thoroughly unmusical hearers that the words must
above all be understood, so that
according
to
them a re-birth of music is only to be expected
when some mode of singing has been discovered
in which the text-word lords over the counter-
point as the master over the servant.

Robert Herrick - Hesperide and Noble Numbers |

And Rustum seiz'd his club, which none but he 405
Could wield; an unlopp'd trunk it was, and huge,
Still rough; like those which men in treeless plains
To build them boats fish from the flooded rivers,
Hyphasis or Hydaspes,[35] when, high up
By their dark springs, the wind in winter-time 410
Has made in Himalayan forests wrack,[36]
And strewn the channels with torn boughs; so huge
The club which Rustum lifted now, and struck
One stroke; but again Sohrab sprang aside
Lithe as the
glancing
snake, and the club came 415
Thundering to earth and leapt from Rustum's hand.
