proved false my hope of dawn, I
quickened
my pace
Trailing a black cloak of the dark behind me
reaching for hope's white bosom to embrace.

When we hear
another language spoken, we
involuntarily
attempt to form the sounds
into words with which we are more familiar and conversant--it was thus,

Niezsche - Beyond Good and Evil |

Only my love of thee held long debate;
And combated in silence all these reasons
With hard contest: at length that grounded maxim
So rife and celebrated in the mouths
Of wisest men; that to the public good
Private
respects
must yield; with grave authority'
Took full possession of me and prevail'd;
Vertue, as I thought, truth, duty so enjoyning.

Now, if we conceive of the humanities as counterbalance to a life that has become completely
absorbed
by abstract information and speed, then, perhaps, reading and the attribution of meaning, at least under present-day circumstances, should be considered to be only one of two sides that make up the humanities.

Oh, come you home of Sunday
When Ludlow streets are still
And Ludlow bells are calling
To farm and lane and mill,
Or come you home of Monday
When Ludlow market hums
And Ludlow chimes are playing
"The
conquering
hero comes,"
Come you home a hero,
Or come not home at all,
The lads you leave will mind you
Till Ludlow tower shall fall.
