“all ignorance toboggans into know

but winter’s not forever, even snow
melts; and if spring should spoil the game, what then?
all history’s a winter sport or three:”

“I see before me now a traveling army halting,
Below a fertile valley spread, with barns and the orchards of summer,
Behind, the terraced sides of a mountain, abrupt, in places rising high,”
