“A temple, you know, was anciently “an open place without a roof,” whose walls served merely to shut out the world and direct the mind toward heaven; but a modern meeting-house shuts out the heavens, while it crowds the world into still closer quarters.”

“The women cry,
Come, my fox,
heal me.
I am chalk white
with middle age
so wear me threadbare....”
