    Hay! now the day dawis;
    The jolie Cok crawis;
    Now shroudis the shawis,
    Throw Natur anone.
    The thissell-cok cryis
    On lovers wha lyis.
    Now skaillis the skyis:
    The nicht is neir gone.
    —Alexander Montgomery (1540?–1610?)

    I’m a Sunday School teacher, and I’ve always known that the structure of law is founded on the Christian ethic that you shall love the Lord your God and your neighbor as yourself—a very high and perfect standard.

    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
