    Of Eva first, that for hir wikkednesse
    Was al mankinde brought to wrecchednesse,
    For which that Jesu Crist himself was slain
    That boughte us with his herte blood again—
    Lo, heer expres of wommen may ye finde
    That womman was the los of al mankinde.

    they stand so still
    in the thunder air, all strangers to one another
    as the green grass glows upwards, strangers in the garden.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
