Cut Stone

“But his neat cookery! He cut our roots in characters,
And sauced our broths, as Juno had been sick
And he her dieter.”

“And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad wind’s night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
