like a red worm and when he kissed
it crawled right in.”

All well defined and several stinks!

The river Rhine, it is well known,
Doth wash your city of Cologne;
But tell me, Nymphs! what power divine
Shall henceforth wash the river Rhine?”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (17721834)
“When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls, and the stars begin to flicker in the sky,”
