“Taylor, the Shakespeare of divines. His words are music in my ear,” —Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“But the dark changed to red, and torches shone, And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop Shouldered a litter with a wounded man, Or smote upon the string and to the sound Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.” —William Butler Yeats (18651939)
