    With burring furred antennae feeling its huge path

    Glides over suburbs”

    “He saw, he wish’d, and to the prize aspir’d.
    Resolv’d to win, he meditates the way,
    By force to ravish, or by fraud betray;
    For when success a lover’s toil attends,
    Few ask, if fraud or force attain’d his ends.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
