    “So hills and valleys into singing break;
    And though poor stones have neither speech nor tongue,

    Thus praise and prayer here beneath the Sun
    Make lesser mornings when the great are done.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    Then I write the pretty mottoes which you find inside the
    crackers’—”
