“Manuel showed her his open hand: Look at this finger, how meager it seems, and this one even weaker, and this other one no stronger, and this one all by himself and on his own.

“Of all the barbarous middle ages, that
Which is most barbarous is the middle age
Of man! it isI really scarce know what;
But when we hover between fool and sage,
And dont know justly what we would be at
A period something like a printed page,
Black letter upon foolscap, while our hair
Grows grizzled, and we are not what we were.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
