    Joyce for all his devotion to his art, terrible in its austerity, was a lad born with a song on one side of him, a dance on the other—two gay guardian angels every human ought to have.

    Wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
    Bible: New Testament Jude, verse 13.

    The angels yawning in an empty heaven;
    Alternate shows of dynamite and rain;
    And choosing forced on free will: fire or ice.
