    In a coign of the cliff between lowland and highland,
    At the sea-down’s edge between windward and lee,

    Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting.

    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
