    “‘Tis all men’s office to speak patience
    To those that wring under the load of sorrow,

    To be so moral when he shall endure
    The like himself.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “He holds the wire from this box of nerves
    Praising the moral error
    Of birth and death, the two sad knaves of thieves,
    And the hunger’s emperor;
    He pulls the chain, the cistern moves.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “Among a hundred windows shining
    dully in the vast side
    of greater-than-palace number such-and-such
    one burns
    these several years, each night
    as if the room within were aflame.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
